PRONOUNCE THE 100 MOST COMMON FRENCH WORDS

How to pronounce the 100 most common French words. In this French lesson, I first pronounce each word, leave a gap for you to repeat before pronouncing it again. You will see each French word written on screen, along with its IPA (international phonetic alphabet) to help you get the pronunciation right. If you're not familiar with the French IPA, I'd encourage you to spend some time learning it as it will help you pronounce French words correctly, even if you've never heard them before. A lot of the IPA characters are actually taken from our alphabet, so it's quite intuitive and quicker to learn than you'd think! :)

Merci Cindi. Tu es un professeur fantastique - des leçons sont très claires et faciles à suivre

[@zenutopia2k708]

The perfect French pronunciation tape. The IPA onscreen, your attention to detail; almost reading our minds/questions ("both the p and s in "temps" are silent" - was never sure about the "p" until watching this video). Best French teacher on KZbin.

[@tiffanysparks7540]

Wonderful being able to both hear the words and see how her mouth moves. Just what I was looking for.

[@robm6141]

Finally videos that focus on pronunciation. It's taken me years to find these. Many, many thanks from a desperate Australian.

Hi Cindy, very helpful for me as a very mature 'novice' french student so thank you, just one thing I notice in the video at 9:02 you say the word "peu" but the text at the top of the screen say's "donner" and some of the letters in the text at the top right appears to be shown in reverse or upside down for some reason :-)

[@pakko33]

Thanks Cindi. This is the secret sauce-learning using IPA Pronunciation symbols. The only way to go!❤

[@charleswatson7488]

Good she also gave an excellent reason why she did not translate

[@kiesenng1988]

Dear Cindi. I'm very impressed by your perfect teaching of French pronunciation. The speech sounds that you produced to be repeated one by one for all the given words were clear to my ears and in just a suitable speed to enable me to learn the subject well. This video reminded me of my time in the campus being a student of English language many years ago. At that time we had to go to the language laboratory to get a lecture like what you have presented in this video. Thank you so much for Frenchiizi Channel and your kind dedication in teaching your followers. God bless your work.

[@brnwshed9169]

can you make both a pronunciation and vocabulary video?

[@cecerose6463]

Thank you for the videos! You're the most helpful French youtuber : )

I've enjoyed it

[@jorgebustamante8874]

Merci :0)

[@TheRuckusor16]

Thank you, Cindy! As usual, very helpful! I was wondering if you could verify my translation of the following phrase? "Elle croyait qu'elle pouvait, alors elle l'a fait." It would really help me out!

[@Frencheezi]

It would be better to add 'le faire' at the end of the first half of your sentence, but other than that, it's great! "Elle croyait qu'elle pouvait le faire, alors elle l'a fait."

[@TheRuckusor16]

Learn French With Frencheezi Thank you so much!

[@jobu3059]

Hi Cindy thank you it is very helpful and in vedio word is Donner but you said PO. Please can you check it once..

[@Frencheezi]

I checked it. You're right, it should have read 'peu' not 'donner'. My mistake.

[@ThePsycologyChannel]

Thank you! You are such a good teacher and patient! I just wish that the video had the translation in English also! Merci!

[@lioness4834]

Not me in my room by myself needing to practice the r sound the most, glad no ones home to ask if I'm okay😂😂💀

[@daoldyroblox1567]

7:52 meme 💀

[@ConstructiveMinds100]

You should be on the list of places to learn French on E fluent website. You outsmart two other people who are there listed with your channel. Make sure to be there.

[@H_M_K138]

Merci beaucoup pour ce vidéo.. ( i hope i wrote correct )

[@Frencheezi]

"cette vidéo" as vidéo is a feminine noun 🙂

[@jamie4437]

when you say stuff like Leur how do you make that sound because I can't do it and you seem good at French so could you maybe make a video on how you make that hu sound like Leur hu like how do u make that hu sound

[@Frencheezi]

The "eu" in "leur" sounds similar to the English word "a" in "a restaurant, a duck etc...". Hope this helps.

[@saoridariceballeater875]

I can't believe you could think of 100 words in common french!

[@gladysma308]

1:11 starts

[@KarenBCN]

I assume there is an order to these videos. Can someone tell me how to figure it out? Thanks!

[@immamartinez3620]

Una mica avorrit

[@ConstructiveMinds100]

I watched your second video and no single ad even 10 seconds?

[@catherinelevison3310]

Donner is poo? 9:01 I pronounced this one as “WHAT” and I don’t know what it means. I will find out.

[@iTechProductionsmh1]

No it is not she made a mistake, check on google the real pronunciation

[@LabGecko]

To clarify (it took me a minute to understand), Lelantos is saying, and Frencheezi confirms to Mala Obulesu, that the word showing at 8:59 should have been "peu". It is just a simple video compilation error. Easy to make when doing 100 of these.

[@hinnazayn]

Where can I see the english translations of the words

[@filizminiksar9393]

She can speak British and French at the same time. Omg

[@noerodriguez4769]

I'm trying to learn both languages, it's hard but so exciting!!

[@aftab7678]

please continue this channel why u not upload new videos

[@zs2839]

我是中国人 我很喜欢你的视频

[@charleswatson7488]

I wonder if anyone has time to count among these commonest words how many have the phonetic reversed R-the guttural sound

[@monsafmohra8540]

Grazie mille sorella mia

[@its256.]

Thax and I was busy writing so I didn't pronounce everything Désole Pardonne moi

[@WondersChannel]

What's even more confusing though, is doesn't the pronunciation vary by region in France? You pronounce some of these differently from my DuoLingo app :P This is why I was originally a bit sceptical of your pronunciation when I first found your channel - cos I thought you were from London and was like "pff what does she know?!" - that until I found out you're actually French XD

[@Frencheezi]

There are different accents in France, but not half as many as there are in England. Which words do you feel I pronounce differently to DuoLingo? I'm genuinely curious as, although I'm originally from Brittany (North West of France), my accent is the same as that of most French people... so I'm a bit confused as to where you could hear differences, but I'm willing to check it out.

[@WondersChannel]

I will listen out and try and remember to get back to you on that.

[@burrito255]

That's true for every languages !

[@MKNguyen15]

when you give up on the 3rd word

[@rohomansahibur5666]

❤️👍

[@Fanwithnblades]

Yikes!,good thing I took the german route lmao.

[@magdalenamatusiak3029]

♥️♥️♥️♥️🙆

[@truongthehe]

Donner IS strange. As it soundS Po (9.00)

[@kingarthur1217]

8:57 Why is Donner pronounced like peux?

[@joshuddin897]

Typo most likely

[@greenfiregaming3026]

What it means

[@user-fo4bn4qy3e]

It would be better to translate every word. Are there any chances to add subtitles? Bon merci

[@edwardhughes352]

Bonjour Cindy Je remarque que il y a erreur dans le video a 9 minutes. Vous dire “pu” mais le mot sur le ecran est donner. Ju suis desole pour le mauvais orthographic mais Je mal epeller aissi en anglaise/ Dieu merci pour google. Eddie

[@Frencheezi]

Thanks for letting me know. Yes, it should have read 'peu'.

[@edwardhughes352]

Ce n'est pas un grand problem. Je voulais juste practuer m'francais.

[@michaelnurse9089]

Bonjour Cindy Je remarque qu'il y a une erreur dans le video à 9:00. Vous avez dit “pour” mais le mot sur l'écran était "donner". Ju suis desolé pour le mauvais orthographic mais j'epelle aussi mal en anglaise. .

[@tom.o.5488]

Translation ... ?

[@halsbandschnaepper1]

Sure that donner pronounced this way?

[@Frencheezi]

Donner is pronounced the way I pronounced it in the video. However, at around 9 minutes, 'donner' appears on the screen when it should have read 'peu', as suggested by the IPA that also appears on the screen (the IPA is correct). My mistake, I must have use 'donner' as a template for 'peu' and forgot to change the word!

[@halsbandschnaepper1]

Learn French With Frencheezi That is what I meant 😉

[@its256.]

But then I need the meanings

[@michelpilon8171]

This is the first time I come across a pronunciation video like this! It is awesome! Just as an aside, is it possible that the word "quelque" is not pronounced as it is in the video? You don't pronounce the final "e" as if it is a silent "e" (which is the case of most french words ending with "e"). It seems to me that French people pronounce the final "e" for that word.

[@Frencheezi]

It depends on the word following it as well as whether the speaker is speaking informally or not. For example, the final 'e' in 'quelque chose' is usually pronounced, unless the speaker is speaking to family or friends, in which case they're very likely to drop the second 'e'.

[@thegirlsilove]

it sounds like the French don't say the ending letters...

[@medhapatki3977]

Only french words? What are the meaning? ( English words)

[@rosmaniarbadril204]

pronunciation is difficult for me

[@Frencheezi]

Don't give up! It takes time but you can do it! 🙂

[@greenfiregaming3026]

Next time can you tell me what it is

[@nileshharchandani8430]
