خلفية ثقافية
The 'Tapage Nocturne' is a legal offense. Making noise between 10 PM and 7 AM can result in a fine. French neighbors are often quick to remind you of this! In Quebec, 'faire du bruit' is used similarly, but you might also hear 'faire du train' in older or more rural dialects to mean making a lot of noise. During protests, 'faire du bruit' is a literal command. Protesters use whistles, drums, and pots to ensure their demands are 'heard' by the authorities.
The 'De' Rule
Always use 'de' instead of 'du' when you say 'don't make noise' (ne fais pas de bruit).
Silent T
Never pronounce the 't' at the end of 'bruit'. It's 'brwee', not 'brweet'.
