J’ai le beguin pour toi is an age-old French expression meaning, “I have a crush on you”. It originates in les beguines, an order of women religious from 12th century that had headgear known as le beguin for worshipping purposes.

“You make me so happy” is often used in romantic relationships; however, it can also be said when loved ones aren’t around or when speaking to pets such as cats, dogs or even hamsters that you care for deeply! This phrase should also be said if they are missing someone they care about!

Une jolie femme This French term conveys great beauty, as it can be applied to any female individual – typically romantically. Say “Tu es une jolie fille,” or more commonly “Tu es la plus belle fille que j’ai jamais vue.”

Un bel homme

Papillon
