The Académie française has just published the first in a series of monthly articles about officially sanctioned French - what, selon elle, you should and should not say.

The categories include Emplois fautifs (Incorrect usages), Néologismes et anglicismes (Neologisms and Anglicisms), Extensions de sens abusives (Faulty extensions of meaning), and Les bonheurs et les surprises de la langue française (Joys and surprises of the French language). Each category includes up to four terms, which link to short but informative explanations.

All in all, it's a potentially interesting site for Francophiles: Dire, Ne pas dire
