If some subtleties of the French pronunciation still sound difficult, you can find a good training at: How To Pronounce French. There are many recordings, each one dealing with a French sound. You will also find the most useful tools when it comes to pronunciation: pages with sounds in contrast.
Once you know the basics, you can take full advantage of the bilingual video ; the main article of the newsletter (Not so) Daily French is regularly published. It allows you to listen while reading and so improve your French by listening to real French. About once a week an article is written -and recorded- in lax French, using the form “tu” (the familiar address).
The column “The French Phrase of the Day” explains a phrase. We have already studied the parts of the body, and the animals in French phrases. We are currently studying the fruits and vegetables.
A part of the newsletter answers the students’ questions.
If you want to receive the newsletter at home, just register and get your gift: a bilingual audiobook. It is a short novel by O. Henry.
