You don't have to push yourself to use French if you don't speak the language: English will perfectly do. If your message is in english, the subject line might be translated to french by the moderators though.

Please note that, in case of a GIVE message, you must end the subject line with the location where the object is. The name of the nearby a metro station is perfect, eg: DONNE table - Odéon. 

Please, avoir using CAPS in the subject line, and don't put any phone number in the message body. In fewer words: keep it simple!

If your keyboard doesn't have accents, don't bother (or cut and paste from this liste è é à î ï ç É È À Î Ï Ç).

As a general rule, you can't send more than one WANTED every 2 weeks. We strongly recommend you GIVE something before you ask for stuff. If you come from some other Freecycle group abroad, please notify us: if you had given your stuff on the other group you may be allowed to ask for something immediatly.

Please have a look at the official manual, in english. Keep in mind that the Parisian rules are a little bit different, probably a little bit more flexible.

The group itself is hosted on Yahoo! Groups which is in English.
