معنی
To engage in the activity of swimming.
زمینه فرهنگی
Swimming is a mandatory part of the national school curriculum. Students must pass a 'Savoir-Nager' test. While the phrase is the same, Quebecers might also use 'baignade' more frequently for leisure swimming. Swim caps (bonnets de bain) are almost always mandatory in public pools for hygiene. Public pools in Belgium often have similar strict rules to France regarding swimwear.
The 'De' Rule
Always remember to change 'de la' to 'de' when you say you DON'T swim: 'Je ne fais pas de natation.'
Gender Matters
Never say 'du natation'. It's always feminine: 'de la natation'.

Sound like a local
If you're going to the pool to work out, say 'Je vais faire des longueurs'. It sounds very natural.
Swim Caps
If you go to a public pool in France, bring a 'bonnet de bain'. You might not be allowed in without one!
