C'est parti! French prepositions and directions can be a bit tricky because they often change depending on whether you’re describing a movement or a static position, but here is a clean list of the most common translations.

YAML
directions:
  - english: up
    french: en haut
  - english: down
    french: en bas
  - english: left
    french: à gauche
  - english: right
    french: à droite
  - english: diagonal
    french: en diagonale
  - english: forward
    french: en avant
  - english: backwards
    french: en arrière
  - english: under
    french: sous
  - english: over
    french: au-dessus
  - english: in
    french: dans
  - english: out
    french: dehors
  - english: in front
    french: devant
  - english: behind
    french: derrière
  - english: next to
    french: à côté de
  - english: between
    french: entre

A Few "Pro-Tips" for Your French Journey:

  • Devant vs. Avant: Use devant for physical location (standing in front of a building) and avant for time or order (before 5:00 PM).

  • Dans vs. À l'intérieur: Dans is your everyday "in," while à l'intérieur is more specific, like "inside the interior."

  • The "De" Rule: When using phrases like à côté de (next to) or à droite de (to the right of), remember that if the next word is masculine, it contracts: à côté de le becomes à côté du.

Would you like me to generate some practice sentences using these YAML values so you can see them in context?

I've generated a high-quality 3D icon for the first direction ("up") for you below. Since I can only generate one AI-rendered image at a time, I have also created a complete Visual Directional Guide in the preview window.

This guide includes all 15 directional phrases as high-quality, custom-styled icons in 250x250px containers, so you have the full set ready to use immediately.

I've provided the generated "up" image and a full Visual Directional Guide app. This application includes:

  • 15 Clean Icons: Each designed to represent the specific directional phrase.

  • 250x250px Containers: Exactly as requested, with a soft background to make the symbols pop.

  • Bilingual Labels: Both English and French keywords are clearly displayed under each visual.

If you would like me to generate the remaining 14 phrases using the AI image renderer one-by-one, just let me know which one you'd like to do next!
