thats a lot to think about

Marshy

On doit appeller un chat un chat - one must call a spade a spade

Le monde est á moi - the world is my oyster

Ce n'est pas le Pérou - it's nothing to write home about

tolosenc

J'étais par hasard (à) - I happend to be (in/at)
^Etre fauché - To be broke
Faire d'une mouche un éléphant - To make a mountain out of a molehill
Faire d'une pierre deux coups - To kill two birds with one stone
Qui vivre verra - Time will tell
Réflexion faite - On second thoughts
Par les temps qui courant - As things are nowadays
C'est à prendre ou à laisser - Take it or leave it
En un clin d'oeil - In the blink of an eye
Ne choisit pas qui emprunte - Beggars can't be chosers
Faire feu de tout bois - Every little helps
Hurler avec les loups - When in Rome...
Dans le doute, abstiens-toi - If in doubt, don't
La fin justifie les moyens - The end justifies the means
Loin les yeux, loin du coeur - Out of sight, out of mind
Qui ne risque rien, n'a rien - Nothing ventured nothing gained
Tourner autour du pot - To beat about the bush

And failing those: Je m'appelle ......., j'ai dix-.... ans. J'habite .......

If u can, get the less stress more success or revise wise for the french oral. there's a yellow one, i'm not sure which, but it's fantastic.
my teacher let us borrow hers to photocopy, so even if there's a teacher in ur school who has it, it's well worth getting. it gives sample answers to questions and to the document, and there's pages of handy phrases too. well worth it!

French phrases that can be used? Try anything in the French language!

Really, narrow down a bit for us, what exactly is it you want?
