B1 noun

le germe

When you hear le germe in French, think of tiny living things, often too small to see, that can sometimes make you sick. This word is very similar to the English word "germ."

It's commonly used when talking about hygiene or health, like trying to avoid spreading germs. For example, after coughing, you might hear someone say it's important to wash your hands to eliminate "les germes."

It can also refer to the part of a seed that begins to grow, like a sprout, but in everyday conversation, the "microorganism" meaning is far more common, especially in a B1 context.

So, if you're talking about health or cleanliness, le germe is the word you'll likely use for those microscopic culprits.
