Carnival – le carnaval

(Pronounced kar-na-val)

The carnival tent was propped up using the Eiffel Tower.

NOTE: The Eiffel Tower is a French icon, and whenever you see it in one of our images, it means that the word is basically the same in both English and French.

Carnaval is masculine, so it's le carnaval. Imagine the early learner taking a selfie with a dancer at the carnival.
