Fascinating Fact:

un jus d’orange means “orange juice”.

In KS3 Fast French, food and drink nouns are useful for everyday situations like shopping, reading a menu, or ordering in a café. This quiz helps you recognise common items and talk about what you eat and drink.

Key Terms

Partitive article: A word like du, de la, de l’, or des, used to talk about “some” of a food or drink.
Uncountable noun: A noun you do not usually count as single items, so you often use a partitive article with it.
Gender: French nouns are masculine or feminine, and the article you use (un/une, le/la) depends on the gender.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

What are partitive articles in French for KS3?

Partitive articles mean “some” and are used with many foods and drinks. KS3 French often uses du (masculine), de la (feminine), de l’ (before a vowel), and des (plural).

How do you order food and drink politely in French?

A polite, simple structure is “Je voudrais...” followed by what you want, then “s’il vous plaît”. This sounds respectful and works in shops, cafés, and restaurants.

How can I remember French food vocabulary more easily?

Learn words in small groups (drinks, fruit, snacks), say them out loud, and revise little and often. Adding the article each time helps you remember the gender as well as the noun.
