Notes on our French sessions
Login created 13 Dec 2024
Summary: We had our first talk on Dec 12 and I learned that Arnie had traveled quite a lot in France (5 or 6 times) and was a keen enthusiast of the country. Arnie mentioned that he couldn’t yet use the past or future tenses. I noticed a few sounds that were pronounced very well such as the “on” and “ou” and even the E.
Next: I advise a full revision of the present and the French sounds just to be sure we have rationalized them. Then we can move on top the past tense (passe compose) before learning the Imparfait.
1. In the pronunciation section:
– Introduction to 4 basic sounds of French
– The sounds and letters of French
2. In the conjugation section:
– The present tense of ER verbs
– The change of Stem of ER verbs
– The present tense of OIR verbs
