French words of the day and night
matinée - afternoon performance at a theatre
soirée - evening event, often at home, for a select few, maybe only two, a party or gathering for a particular purpose, such as a musical soirée, or a poetry soirée
Ma cherie, après le matinée, chez vous, pour un soirée?
A few more French words:
cher - dear (formal dear sir)
cherie - darling, dearest, dear
monsieur - mister (but mister on its own in English is a bit insulting, whilst in French it's closer to sir which respectful
voilà - literally see!, there they are! or here they are! (after you've found your gloves or glasses where you thought they'd be)
