God in French is dieu. It’s a masculine noun, the plural form is les dieux, x silent. The word god in French can be spelled with an uppercase or lowercase D, depending whether it refers to any god, or the God of the Christians, which most of these expressions refer to, France being traditionally a Catholic country. Common synonyms for God in French...
The French used to use “vous” to talk to God, but it has switched to “tu”, as you would now normally talk to your father. Some people still use “vous” as a form of respect, but the standard in the Catholic prayersis “tu”. I will now list the most common French expressions using the word God in French.
This expression is used to express surprise, a shock, just as it is in English. 1. J’ai une mauvaise nouvelle à t’apprendre : je suis malade. I have bad news for your: I’m sick. 2. Oh mon Dieu ! Tu es sûre ? Oh my God! Are you sure?
We use that one as well. 1. J’ai un cancer. Mais c’est juste le début et les médecins sont confiants. I have cancer. But it’s only the beginning and doctors are confident. 2. Dieu merci : est-ce que tu souffres ? Thank God: are you in pain?
Let me insist that in common French language, this expression is no longer an invitation to actually praise the Lord, but an expression of relief, much more like “Thank God” or “Thank goodness” in English. However, if you actually wanted to give praise to God, you could say “Dieu soit loué” or more likely “Rendons grâce à Dieu” or “Louons le Seigne...

Here also, French and English are almost the same. Believers would frown upon the name of God being used in vain. So, by some twisted way, God became a swear word!! In French, we won’t just swear “God” but “Name of God” = “Nom de Dieu”. It’s quite common and there are much worse swear terms nowadays… 1. Nom de Dieu ! Si j’attrape celui qui a écrit ...
A ladybug’s common French name is “une coccinelle”, but we also sometimes call it “une bête à bon Dieu” (a beast of the good Lord). 1. Ce matin, j’ai vu une bête à bon Dieu sur la fenêtre. This morning, I saw a ladybug on the window.
French and English share this idiom. It means that you cannot always explain everything. 1. Pourquoi les poules n’ont-elles pas de dent ? Les voies de Dieu sont impénétrables. Why do chickens have no teeth? God works in mysterious ways
This French idiom means that it’s better to go directly to the chief. 1. La vendeuse ne comprenait rien alors j’ai demandé à parler au directeur du magasin. Mieux vaut avoir affaire à Dieu qu’à ses saints. The salesperson didn’t understand anything, so I asked to talk to the store manager. Better dealing with God than with his saints.
