[MrMrgotthatswag]

ce qui n'aidera pas personne ne vous l'aide d'une personne réelle français, comme moi je pourrais vous aider les gars parlent français couramment

[limbdarkening]

English must be very confusing to learn because we use one word for a lot of things. Example, camera, camera, etc.

[brraaanno]

how do I make a difference between "ils ont" and ils sont" in pronanciation?

[MrKiddieland]

At 3:19, I think you have a mistake, you typed, "Il a une cigarette," and as I may remember, in one of your other lessons you said "un" was the masculine form of has in English, and that "une" was the feminine form of saying it, so in this picture, why did you put une if it says "il", which means he is a man? Also, you said that in France instead of saying,"I am thirsty," you say," I have thirst," so why did you say ,"She is thirsty," at 4:24?

[bmint07]

@MrKiddieland just because the subject (he or she) is used, does not mean the object (the cigarette) has to be the same gender. you can say "il a une cigarette..." he has a cigarette. it means the same thing if you were to use "elle a une cigarette..." she has a cigarette. the gender of the word cigarette does not have to match the "il or elle." the gender of words will always stay. like if you are a girl or boy...your gender will never change. so keep that in mind when using words. understand?

[MultiVultures]

@MrKiddieland If you translate "Elle a soif" on english language, it literally means "She has thirst". But, you can't say that someone "has thirst" in english language, because its incorrect and noone talk like that, so translation of "Elle a soif" is "She is thirsty".

@MrKiddieland It means that he has a cigarette . Cigarette is a feminine

[davito318]

@MrKiddieland Masculine and Feminine applies to the object not the person.  Il a une cigarette or he has a cigarette. The noun cigarette is feminine, la cigarette, so it must take the feminine indefinite article une. The fact that he is a man has nothing to do with the feminine object he is holding.

[supernotstarable]

why can't it be nous avons LES crayons?

[imhanppl]

[kingiolizm]

[MrAlexdesousa]

[FikiNom]

I just wanted to say merci a lot for your videos! Very clear! i am learning a lot from your videos than I did in a 4 yr university,....probably the wrong place to learn French lol. Much appreciated!

[class77ten]

@cbizzle4lyfe You can use either one.

[zapatosinpie54]

So do I say "je avoir envie" or "je a envie" ??

[HikaruZanshii]

@zapatosinpie54 J'ai envie :3

[MrMrgotthatswag]

@zapatosinpie54 dude are you TRYING to learn french or what people are SAYING in french. cause if u keep listening 2 people who are not french cause there are different types of french parts and their pronounciation. (excuse me if i spell wrong) aucun de ces vidéos peuvent vous aider simplement aller prendre un cours de français thats le meilleur matériau none of these videos can help you just go take a french class thats the best material

[Elneff89]

I speak a little german, and they say to have hunger as well. I'm hungre is I habe Hunger.

[zapatosinpie54]

@Elneff89 it is the same in spanish, actually english is the only one that is different haha

[zz03]

thnx 4 the lessons :) think im goin in2 information overload now. time 2 rest :P

[360kal]

but if etre is to be why say avoir laison instead of etre laison. will apreciate any help merci beaucoup, j' aime ce lecon

[ggem333]

Well, my first language is spanish and we say it the same way, may be because both languages have common roots. One advice would be to think of thrist or hunger as something you posses( to have), that way it will make sense.

[micheljr17]

that is so true, i too speak spanish, and yeah we do say "to have hunger"

ex, Tengo hambre

[360kal]

[foreverxxforgotten]

[ie9rws]

What is the difference between on and nous?

[vinhbethmickie]

il n'est rien different. on et nous sont "we" en l'anglais.

[5Bishop001]

Bravo! Merci beaucoup! This adds volume to my current, little, knowledge of french.

[webkinzisawsome]

Thank you for posting this very helpful video. it helped me ALOT. :)

[3observer3]

thank you for your helpful video, i am trying to learn french on my own and pronunciation is killer!

i have a question, i notice that some times, 'un' is pronounced with the 'n' at the end and other times 'un' seems to end off with a nasal sound. is it that when 'un' is followed by a word starting with a vowel that the 'n' is pronounced? same question regarding 'est' sometimes i hear the 't' being pronounced and not at other times..:S

[kolethsita]

in french when a word ends with a consonant we never pronunce it,but if the followed word begins with a vowel we pronunce the last letter for ex. c'est un chien--here we pronunce the "t" since the next word begins with a vowel.but, if we say c'est ma mere--here we dont pronunce it, we say 'ce ma mere" 'cuz in french they follow an order and it has to sound consonant, vowel, consonant, vowel..so that's why sometimes it's pronunce it and sometimes not, i hope i explained myself clear :S

[baigandine]

@3observer3 French pronunciation is not 100% consistent among regions, so I think some do pronounce it with a slight nasal sound.

[class77ten]

@3observer3 You got it. we make the liaison when it is followed by a vowel.

[FemmeMoiNin]

Hahaha, 6:27. 'I don't know what this is but it looks pretty good, so je envie de ca.'

[kunalsharma14]
