The market photo again: This time the student links the photo to its theme and to French-speaking culture.
Relier au thème et à la culture
Thème, exemple, idée plus large

- Cette image montre que, dans le monde francophone, les produits locaux font partie de l'identité.
- À mon avis, ces marchés sont importants parce qu'ils gardent les traditions vivantes.
