French lessons and language tools from Laura K Lawless
Whether romantic, flattering, sexy, practical, or just plain cheesy, pick-up lines, aka chat-up lines, can be a big part of the dating scene. Here are some classic and creative French pick-up lines.
The French don’t really use pick-up lines – they generally just start chatting and see how it goes. But as a foreigner with a horrible charming accent and a sense of humor, you can probably get away with trying one of these out.
Even though pick-up lines are by definition used with people you don’t know, the sorts of situations in which you’re likely to use them typically call for tu rather than vous.
Ça t’a fait mal … quand tu es tombée du ciel ?
Did it hurt … when you fell from heaven?
Est-ce que je peux t’appeler Biscotte ? Parce que je te trouve craquante.
Can I call you Cookie? Because I find you irresistible.
Est-ce que le soleil vient de se lever ou c’est toi qui m’as souri ?
Did the sun just rise or did you smile at me?
Est-ce que tu as un plan ? Je me suis perdu dans tes yeux.

Excuse me, do you kiss strangers? No? Then let me introduce myself.
Excuse-moi, j’ai perdu mon numéro de téléphone. Est-ce que je peux t’emprunter le tien ?
Excuse me, I lost my phone number. Can I borrow yours?

Je m’appelle Prince et je suis charmant. Quelqu’un m’a dit que tu me cherchais.

I just arrived in this town. Can you tell me the way to your apartment?

Si je te disais que tu avais un beau corps, tu m’en tiendrais rigueur?

Ton père est un voleur ? Parce qu’il a volé les étoiles du ciel pour les mettre dans tes yeux.
Is your dad a thief? Because he stole the stars from the sky to put them in your eyes.
Ton père, il vend des fusils ? Parce que t’es trop canon.
Does your father sell guns? Because you’re a real bombshell.

French Pick-Up Lines for Any Situation
A story by LingQ 12th Sep 18 10:40 am
Everyone knows that French is the language of love, but how can you use that to your advantage if you want to get a date when you’re in the City of Lights (or anywhere else in the French-speaking world)?
You probably won’t learn any pick-up lines in French class, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have a few in your back pocket, ready to use when you’re struck by a coup de foudre–that is, a “flash of lightning,” or “love at first sight” in French.
While the French don’t typically use pick-up lines in everyday situations, as a foreigner you can definitely use your charming accent to your advantage and break the ice with some of these phrases de drague. Who knows, they may just help you find your own Francophone chéri(e)!
Here are some French pick-up lines you should know, as well as when you should use them!
Excuse-moi. Est-ce que tu embrasses les inconnus?
Excuse me, do you kiss strangers?
Non? OK, je me présente alors.
No? Then let me introduce myself.
Since just about every French class starts off with how to introduce yourself, this seems as good a line as any to try as any.
Si t’étais un sandwich à McDo, tu serais le Mc-nifique!
If you were a sandwich at McDonald’s, you’d be the Mc-nificent!
Yes, it’s horrible, but admit it, you chuckled.
Je viens de me rendre compte que tu ressembles beaucoup à mon/ma prochain(e) petit(e) ami(e).
I just realized that you look a lot like my next boyfriend/girlfriend.
This line starts out innocently enough that you’re sure to catch the listener’s attention, and the end will hopefully let you get a real conversation going!
Si je t’aide à apprendre l’anglais, est-ce que tu m’apprendras comment embrasser à la française?’
If I teach you English, will you teach me how to French kiss?
Yes, it’s corny, but if you want to capitalize on your cute foreign accent, this is the line to use.
Ça t’a fait mal…quand tu es tombé(e) du ciel?
Did it hurt…when you fell from heaven?
It’s the most well-known, cheesiest of all pick-up lines, and it has a French translation!
Est-ce que je peux t’appeler Biscotte? Parce que ie te trouve craquante.
Can I call you Cookie? Because I find you irresistible.
Only in French could there be a pick-up line that involves a baked good. Bonus points for the use of the word craquante here, which indicates something so irresistibly delicious-looking that you can’t help but want to bite right into it.
Tu t’appelles Google? Parce que je trouve en toi tout ce que je recherche.
Is your name Google? Because I’ve found everything I’ve been looking for in you.
While this line may be particularly corny, it definitely isn’t in danger of becoming outdated anytime soon!
Mince, il y a quelque chose qui cloche avec mon portable.
Crap, there’s something wrong with my phone.
[Quoi?]
[What?]
Il manque ton numéro.
It’s missing your number.
This line demands the participation of a second party, but once you’ve drawn him or her in, turn on the charm (or the cheese).
On m’a toujours dit de suivre mes rêves alors ce soir je te suis.
They always told me to follow my dreams, so tonight I’m following you.
It’s cheesy, yet forward and confident, but best to be sure that the person is actually interested (or that they’ll at least find it funny) first!
Mes copains m’ont parié que je n’arriverais pas à démarrer une conversation avec la plus belle fille/le plus beau mec du bar.
My friends bet me that I wouldn’t be able to start a conversation with the prettiest girl/cutest guy at the bar.
Tu veux boire un coup avec leur argent?
Want to have a drink with their money?
Hopefully the object of your affection will be flattered enough to say yes!
Mademoiselle, je vous trouve absolument charmante.
Miss, I find you absolutely charming.charmante.
Typically one would use the informal tu for a pick-up line, but the charm in this line comes from its use of the formal vous, which is a sign of respect in French. Plus, it’s a more earnest and understated line than most.
Hey, Mademoiselle, t’es jolie comme la Tour Eiffel!
Hey miss, you’re as beautiful as the Eiffel Tower!
It’s bordering on cheese, but the simplicity of this pick-up line keeps it from being too over-the-top.
Ça va te paraître fou, mais je t’ai vu et je me suis dit que ce serait idiot de ne pas venir te parler.
This’ll probably seem crazy, but I saw you and I thought that it would be stupid if I didn’t come to talk to you.
It’s simple and to the point but flattering enough to hopefully catch the attention of your potential suitor.
Quel est ton 06?
What’s your number?
French phone numbers always start with the numbers 06, so this is a slightly flirty and native-sounding way to ask for someone’s cell phone number.
Tu es célibataire. Je suis célibataire. Coïncidence? Je crois pas.
You’re single. I’m single. Coincidence?I don’t think so.
Perhaps it was written in the stars!
Puis-je vous offrir à boire?
Can I buy you a drink?
One of the most classic lines in the book, so it’s definitely need-to-know!
Tu es tellement jolie que j’ai oublié ma phrase de drague.
You’re so pretty that I forgot my pick-up line.
A pick-up line that disguises itself as not a pick-up line, wrapped up with a compliment to boot, what more could you want?
Ultimately, whether you use a pick-up line or not, if you take the time to practice your French you’ll be prepared for any social situation. And if your pick-up lines don’t win your crush over, your confidence certainly will. Before you do try your luck, you may want to first check out this post about French terms of endearment and make sure you romantic language arsenal is full.
