Famory phrases Sikasso, Mali

In Mali the official language is French. There are also a lot of other languages but French is dominant. Also Famorys original Kiva request was made in French so I think learning French is a safe bet.
Here are the top ten phrases I need to know in order of importance:
1. Where is the bathroom? Ou est la salle de bain?
2. Hello! Bonjour!
3. What is your name? Qel es votre nom?
4. Is there food? Y at-il des aliments?
5. How are you? Comment allez vous?
6. My name is Alex. Mon nom est Alex.
7. Yes. Oui.
8. No. Aucun.
9. What? Que?
10.  Why? Pourquoi?
You might notice that I made most of them questions. I'm expecting to be asking more than answering considering I'm in Famorys home not mine. Rendez-vous au Mali.
