Please! We don't need the English audio part! The written translation is enough!

[@goldenmitaine4629]

why am I watching this im french

[@castielkahnwald5314]

Wow I have been doing French for a year, and this opens my eyes to how bad I actually am. could barely keep up with what he was saying, my listening skills are my weakest point in learning another language

[@sneamer1282]

What helped me greatly with my listening skills in French or any other language (I don't know if it's well known or not) is the exercise, where you pause and re-play the phrase as many times as needed in order to write the sentence to the best of your abilities. Then you will see the sentence itself and you correct your version (and can even rate yourself from 1-10 to motivate yourself). You will eventually get so much better because you will recognize the particular words better since you already heard them couple of times. This exercise just helps you with your concentration I guess.

[@moodbeast]

Over 4 hours! That's really generous, thank you!

[@janedoe-ks2lw]

this is really great thank you only one thing that is odd. the man's voice in French is soft and very easy to follow - thank you so much. however the woman's voice in English is quite loud and shrill - it hurts my ears to listen to the female voice.

[@andyaerials]

you'll survive :)

[@akf2000]

Exactly my thoughts

[@onlineallthetime5522]

English version - very loud and more attitude. seulement le francais suffit

[@janedoe-ks2lw]

@@andyaerials hahaha merci oui

[@MR-cc7zl]

Yep..if I wanted to hear this voice for 4 hours, I would just walk around in Walmart. 🙄

[@Verowatches]

I love the advanced level of attitude and drama in some of these phrases. I am laughing so hard and learning so much.

[@MrBaldenegro]

Same!!!

[@leisurecomments8176]

This aural/visual teaching style is truly effective. The college classes I had were a waste of time as no one could even form his/her own french sentence even after a year.

[@vrpedulla3093]

This. Is what I have been looking for ....listening, speaking and learning

[@MaxRainet]

Wow, I've studied French off and on for 3 decades, and this is great. Thank you very much.

[@mohanavigneshj6382]

I haven't seen anything more useful to improve comprehending skills than this on KZbin. 4 hrs of free and useful material. Très parfait pour moi et donc je vous remercie

[@stephencindrich6787]

The more I listen, the more I realize how helpful this really is! Thank you!

[@TheFinav]

This is a fantastic resource. Much appreciated. Students of French may wish to note that many of the phrases here use the passé simple. This is actually used very rarely in spoken French, so these recordings may be more suited to people moving to levels c1/2.

[@roger7918]

Excellent video for improving comprehension. I have just finished the 52 episodes of French in Action(which I highly recommend) and am eager to go through all four hours of this one. Thanks for posting!

[@awopetudaniel6219]

Je viens d'un pays anglophone et de la langue de communication. J'ai parfaitement traduit soixante% du français. Ce n'était pas facile mais c'était très intéressant. Merci à Kendra.

[@jimmyf6145]

This is definitely an excellent tool to practice listening skills, but even for someone like myself who has reached intermediate level, I found it quite challenging. Imagine a French native speaking way much faster during conversations, it would be quite impossible to understand. I think it would be much better to choose phrases or conversations pertaining to everyday life, like dining in restaurants, shopping, travelling etc because that’s what most people need if they travel to a French speaking country for leisure. I appreciate very much for your efforts though.........

[@maicidiecagem]

I am brazilian, so i am a portuguese speaker and I have been learning English for 6 years, and when i wanna measure how good my english is i go to a video like this where they are speaking a language i don't know absolutely nothing (in that case French), and i can see how advanced is my English 🤣🤣... is good for my self-esteem... maybe someday i hope i will be here to learn French🤣

[@troymihoyminoy3889]

I haven't listened to French in so long after learning it in school for four years and I still remember a good amount of stuff! wowww

[@LeToile9]

Brilliant. Exactly what I have been looking for for a long time. Great!

[@evgeniia_dro]

Merci beaucoup pour ces leçons! Ils m’ont aidé à m’habituer à la langue française!

[@vt2541]

C’est bien structuré pour ce niveau. Formidable!

[@maximilianraible7912]

C’est la meilleure vidéo que je vu sur KZbin pour améliorer son français en niveau intermédiaire 👌🏻😉

[@josd6387]

This is amazing. Thank you. It should soon have 100 times as many views.

[@JulieAcupuncture]

I finally found something that I can use to study. I am so glad.

[@BBrunnel]

I always thought I was really bad at French because I never learnt it formally (I was born there, both parents speak was never taught it) but after doing this, I realised I'm actually way better than I think.

[@anibalsancheznuma3133]

I am happy...I could understand completely most of the sentences.

[@СашаШевченко-ъ3ь]

1 million likes for this great job!! Now I need higher level

[@noelchua2954]

I’ll never figure out the words without the text! Merci beaucoup!

[@chuckitaway466]

I like the format...best I have found in this style

[@getulioferreira]

Excellent video. I've been learning a lot by studying it. Thanks a million!

[@anon4656]

in the first ten minutes, the only sentence i fully understood was no.10. just shows me how much i need to practice

[@bjale1174]

Je trouve que votre vidéo est aussi efficace, je vous remercie pour vos efforts...

[@thehealinghotspotjuliesund3601]

This is sooooo helpful and improving my french considerably ! Merci beaucoup

[@acevedomiranda760]

It'sa very efficient methode for learning french and of course english language at the same time

[@Naturalista91]

Excellent, great video! I also think the English is a great addition. This way you can practice your French without having to watch the screen per se. You could do it while doing the dishes and still hear whether you translated correctly.

[@ACSMusicSounds]

i took french in highschool and in jr high and this is a great refresher!

[@nancyrosaasen7655]

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you 😊

[@marielasanz1611]

Thanks. To learn 2 language au même temps. Merci😊💕💖

[@miguelgiacomo]

Thank you for this material. I am loving it!

[@jyotideoli4258]

Très bien expliqué!

[@tochiemmanuel3608]

Je me suis amélioré en français. Je suis ravi de cette réussite.

[@web3982]

So important and useful manner, Thank you so much!

[@reverie5760]

I speak french basically fluently already, but something about french accents really sounds nice to me. this english voice, however... :l edit: the pronouncing of the "t" at the end of some words is really messing with me :D

[@happymoments6971]

Help me

[@centrodelogoterapiaycultur9739]

Mi reconocimiento y gratitud a todos los que hacen posible, que sus lecciones de francés e ingles llegue a a todas las personas interesadas en aprender ambos idiomas, No entiendo porque permanece mas tiempo en el monitor la palabra "Listen" que los diálogos, para el alumno, es necesario que permanezca mas tiempo el diálogo, a fin de poder leer ambos idiomas.

[@israelsaratovskyi6619]

Très utile, merci beaucoup!!!

[@jeffblack4039]

Fabulous course Kendra. My brain/spirit have very little natural ability to pick up spoken French for more complicated sentences but this course has been very helpful in spite of that challenge. May you live long and prosper.

[@diamondtran8331]

This program has helped me in refreshing my English as well as learning French.

[@deepashreekarande7301]

The videos give good listening practice.

[@saxleil5443]

Very difficulte but awesome to try to figure out!! Thankx

[@tochiemmanuel3608]

J'adore beaucoup cette langue. J'essayerai pour apprendre cette langue

[@ilka5671]

I‘m trying to refrech my school french with this and it really helps a lot Merci beaucoup

[@bilko333]

[@carolinaazevedo9180]

Merci beaucoup ! C’est complètement utile

[@sylvainnouet6447]

c'est très utile

[@olerilwentsie2934]

Doing this for my IGCSE listening exams

[@fortunefortune8613]

Excellent 👍👍👌

[@jackbenimble999]

I love the fact that the English is provided - although it also emphasizes just how much better French sounds than English!

[@myutube7441]

I'm so excited t see this. Merci beaucoup!!

[@mari14235]

Спасибо! Для меня подходящее упражнение! Понимаю нормально, но не говорю, вот пытаюсь заговорить)

[@MsGiselle27]

J"adore!! Merci...

[@liahk1000]

Great, thank you! Too difficult for me but still helpful. For me it would have been great if you could have a few seconds to observe the text before he pronounces it again with the text. Or would be good to have a few seconds to look at the text in the end.

[@elomogbana3993]

Merci beaucoup pour ce video tres utile. Ça m'a beaucoup aidé.

[@fmlandaburu]

C'est excellet ! Merci beaucoup !

[@lumberjake831]

Je suis d'accord Fernando!

[@Pastfacemusic]

Cette vidéo est très utile

[@trufflepig1491]

This is useful thank you. However, I think it would be better without the English audio as it takes away from the immersive listening. The English translation is on the screen so I really think the audio is unnecessary

[@rudimonzon594]

Im learning french and english at the same Time with this video

[@HannahRobertson-hn8jx]

merci pour cette video, il a m'aide beaucoup !

[@juliakaranja1067]

Amazing addition. What I hear and what it is?🤔 Lord have mercy...😂 However, practice makes parfait.

[@chiomao8734]

Same here. The difference is truly clear 😅😅

[@shailrajmahida]

I recently heard a french teacher on youtube say,"The best way to learn french is to dare to speak it!" I don't know if this is true,but i am trying the method and i am not sure how far will it take me,and how much fast!

[@amalelhichou8389]

Très intéressant, very interesting thanks

[@irenefannchase4075]

Oh lalalala MERCI BEAUCOUP!! J'ai un l'écoute demain, c'est très utile!

[@zbigniewbrzezinski8869]

Thanks for the best aid in conversational progress

[@bernahometv5731]

Merci beaucoup 🙏

[@francofluence]

Just what i was looking for

[@gopalvenus]

I've just come across this and think it's really good. Merci

[@sajdah_islam]

it's getting hard more and more 😅😅 thank you so much

[@fmlandaburu]

C est excellent ! merci beaucoup

[@lagerstormia]

A great resource for learning with one major flaw: the computer generated English voice is unbearable. There are so many nice options. This one is awful, the voice, the accent. I brace myself for pain every time she is about to come on. Everything else is really good. An excellent format.

[@miafrench6690]

Why in the world would people want so much aural practice of passé simple, a verb tense that doesn't exist in spoken French?

[@drmichaelelinski6992]

It would be even better if you did not have the American English translation after each phrase. Just writing the translation is good enough ! Besides, the English voice is louder than the French voice, which is very annoying. To be completely honest, the American voice has such an annoying twang, that I wish we had the option to turn it off. The American twang is so bothersome, sometimes it sounds like scratching finger nails on a black board. Please consider making a version where the American English translation can be completely turned off ! Please ? Aside from that annoyance, this video of French phrases is very helpful and just what I need to help me progress in spoken French. If you need to have an English voice as well, please make it softer, with less of a regional twang in the accent. Another option would be to use a mild British accent, but also not as loud as this American voice sounds. This makes American English so annoying to listen to. I’d love to discuss this further, if you are interested. Thank you for reading my comment. Have a good day!

[@faithwachai1046]

Very helpful:) Merci beaucoup

[@javierzapata7033]

Is there a video without english subtitles, and without someone talking in english? Thank you - Mx

[@LeafySpreads]

c'est superb!

[@nathaniellathy6559]

Some of these phrases are quite startling.

[@gwdg-pbm-wl]

Merci mille fois!

[@AnaisIsAce]

Please could you do a version without the English please? I'd love to use this for teaching but all the videos have English over the top which really ruins the whole idea of teaching the French! Thanks

[@paulhely8930]

I am finding this very helpful. Thank you so much. Paul.

[@MichaelMiller-qm1nl]

Thank you very much for your work!

[@anuragrai165]

Très Bien et Merci Beaucoup 🎉💐🌹🌺

[@landmannmike]

Great resource. In speech it would be more natural to use the passé composé rather than the passé simple though.

[@michaelolin2219]

Merci pour le video.

[@Victory_to_Ukr]

This is a great one.

[@Morena1657]

Merci pour cette classe. Je l'utilize pour revour la langue de francais. Je vous salue de la jamaique.
