La R4 a cinquante ans!

I can't resist to include this French iconic car to my blog and take the opportunity to remind you to use the verb "avoir" to say your or somebody's age. "Vous avez quel âge? "is , in a way, similar to saying "What age do you have?" It is such a classic mistake to make, almost as classic as the R4!

As we are speaking of birthdays, we could also say: La R4 fête ses 50 ans (celebrates) or
La R4 souffle ses 50 bougies. (She blows her 50 candles)!
You would wish somebody Bon Anniversaire! or Joyeux Anniversaire!
