Pronunciation

Cultural Note
This phrase became legendary thanks to Jean Gabin's line to Michèle Morgan in the 1938 film 'Quai des Brumes': 'T'as d'beaux yeux, tu sais.' It remains one of the most iconic lines in French cinema and is the quintessential French compliment. Using it today is both romantic and a nod to classic French culture.
