French Occupations Vocabulary
Each quiz matches five French job words to their English meanings, and also asks you to fill gaps and translate sentences. You will cover workplace roles like directeur (manager), healthcare jobs such as médecin (doctor) and infirmier (nurse), public service roles like pompier (firefighter), and skilled trades including plombier (plumber) and électricien (electrician).
These quizzes are aimed at beginners and come in handy whether you are preparing for work or travel. Grouping the jobs by setting, from the hospital to the workshop, makes a long list far easier to learn. Some sets also ask you to translate whole sentences, so you practice using a job title, not just recognizing it.
French Job Titles with Audio Pronunciation
Saying a job title clearly matters in introductions, so every quiz includes audio pronunciation. Hearing a word like médecin (doctor) helps you say what you do, or ask what someone else does, with confidence.
Did You Know?
One job word doubles as a snack. Avocat (lawyer) also means avocado in French, and the rest of the sentence is what tells you which one is on the table.
Another has a surprising root. Plombier (plumber) traces back to the Latin word for lead, because the earliest water pipes were made from that metal, so it has nothing to do with plums.
How the Quizzes Work
Each quiz is short, about five minutes, and you can repeat any of the 6 sets until the titles feel familiar. Learning jobs by workplace gives each new word a context to stick to, and a few rounds is enough to make the everyday titles feel automatic. Ready to talk about work in French?
