[ririlou]

Juste notice this:

you can use 100% of words ending by "-tion" because it come from french.

You can use it with same spelling and in the same way

^^

[PeaceMaryAnn]

bonjour

[PeaceMaryAnn]

merci im now learn french beginner and this help a lot

[busybuzzbuzz]

too slow. Everyone gets the word order already. Too much englis not enough french

[xXxzambitaxXx]

je suis une touriste peruvienne (:

[xXxzambitaxXx]

Just like in spanish (:

[MrPaPeRBox]

how to you say it that so? or 'really'? And how do you pronounce it?

[pldeparis]

We don't say "il est un touriste canadien" but "c'est un touriste canadien".

It sounds more natural.

[pldeparis]

I'm french and I would say "c'est un touriste canadien" instead of "il est un touriste canadien".

It sounds strange.

[Idreamtobreakaway]

Wow,I like your video! I haven't started taking french lessons seriously and tried reading off french-english dictionaries. I now do very much regret not learning it earlier and putting it to use when I was in Paris during mid year. :(

[loco9un3poco]

Merci beacoup!! I started studying French et j'adore et j'aime *__* J'ai some problems with the pronounciation but luckily these usefyll videos exist!!! J'adore la franc,aise et salutation de Finlande : )

Tak Tak From Paris ^^

[kriiw3]

WOOOOW ! jajajaajjajaajjajaja  I like your videos Remy !

Merci beaucoup *-----* ! jejejeje

[marinem1a2]

Thank you very much!

[fernandesilyt]

In portuguese you say "I'm a tourist american" "eu sou um turista americano"

[sarimsok]

did the last girl say she's from Ohio?

[adamdren]

This is actually a very well produced tutorial

[proudbelgian]

Nonante, septante c'est du vieux françois.C'est ce que disait Louis XIV. Les Belges et les Suisses ,réactionnaires notoires, ont conservé ces vieux mots.A noter l'usage encore actuel de septuagénaire et nonagénaire. Merci de votre attention.

[TheFabregas360]

if we say un table so what does that mean and une table

[ParamoreDeepRock]

@TheFabregas360 Un table: An table Une Table:A table

[winsun96]

@ParamoreDeepRock u can't say un table because table is female in french, you can either say une table for singular or des tables for plural.

[lumiere2020]

@TheFabregas360 You can't say 'un table' because 'table' is feminine. It's not like 'Le chien' where you can say 'La chienne' because there is female dogs. A table is... well a table. So it's just 'une table'.

[xXIVANROJASXx]

ooohhh merci beacoup! :DD

[l0ldaya]

Im taking french for the fist time at school, but yet i think his vidoes help me more than they do at school! :D Thank you soo much! :)

[l0ldaya]

Im taking french for the fist time at school, but yet i think his vidoes help me more than they do at school! :D

[CristinaXLawliet]

your accent is beautiful

[Boutdenature]

wtf? what is this music? its shit! im french and it makes me laugh!! haha no guys we dont eat frog legs and snails we hate them! haha

[lumiere2020]

@Boutdenature Well I eat frog legs xD... I don't like snails though.

[Nessygurlxd]

What the heck is this!?! i dont understand really

[cesaralda]

El profesor de inglés solo habla en inglés durante la clase. El de francés sólo habla en francés. El de italiano también unicamente hablaba en italiano. Etc. Lo siento, Sr.Jremy7, pero Vd. no debe utilizar el inglés para enseñar el francés. Vd. debe encontrar recursos en la lengua francesa para hacerse entender por un anglo-parlante. Supongo que los anglo-parlantes no son unos paletos incapaces de realizar el mismo esfuerzo que hacemos los demás cuando aprendemos inglés.

[thecaribeman]

how do say, i speak spanish in french please.

[zustyle]

@thecaribeman je parle espagnol

[xMrAngelZx]

@thecaribeman

je parle l'espagnol

[mariafme]

@thecaribeman Je Parle Espagnol

[9878569]

@thecaribeman je parle espagnol. Can that answer your question?

[Quentin77170]

@thecaribeman I speak Spanish = je parle espagnol. I'm Spanish = Je suis espagnol / espagnole (for girls)

[alqitta]

@thecaribeman  : Je parle espagnol

[OrganicUnderpants]

[grynia]

best regards Ola

[Quentin77170]

@grynia

J'ai for both male and female (je before a consonnance / j' before a vowel)

J' Ai

JE Suis

J' Arrive

J' Imagine

Je Mange

[masumi99]

1:06 funny :)

[Teranex]

I have a Friend who is a Canadian terrorist lol. Joke, great vids very educational.

[sanzagain1]

VERY INTERESTING & EASY 2 PICK LESSONZ....THANKZ MAN..

[sumahasuver]

Where is the pronoun "It"? <---- Neuter form

The lesson seem to me that the missing one more singular pronoun is not addressed. How would you say "It is", "It has", It does" ?

[9878569]

@sumahasuver il does both he and it. In french, it does and he does will be il fait for either of those two meaning. Ok?

[Quentin77170]

@sumahasuver in French we don't have a neutral pronoun... Everything is either masculine or feminine: une voiture = a car (feminine) un avion = an airplane (masculine) un arbre = a tree (masculine) une maison = a house (feminine) etc.

And in French I barely think of good translations for "it is" "it has" ... it is! = ça l'est!

Nevertheless we use "ça, c' " which are always masculine:

it is beautiful = c'est beau (c' before a vowel)

it works = ça marche/fonctionne

[sumahasuver]

Where is the pronoun "It"? <---- Neuter form

The lesson seem to me that the missing one more singular pronoun is not addressed. How would you say "It is", "It has", It does"

[brandonichero]

Man I love these videos

[Sosoriginale]

Salut Remy. Tu expliques bien. Je voudrais juste savoir si tu es américain d'origine et si tu as aucun lien français ou si tu as de la famille française ? parce que tu as un accent français prononcé et tu prononce hypeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer bien! J'espère que tu me comprendras ^^' Bonne continuation.

[guyjunge10]

J´adore les leçons. Merci beacoup!

[guyjunge10]

Nice videos. Jádore les leçons

Merci beacoup!

Au revoir bien tôt!

[trueprfashn]

so, does french has the same kind of sentence structure as spanish?

[robotentity]

The clash of vowels made me lol!

[FRanti01]

It is nice to see that people learn to french ! Bonne chance à vous ;)

[xNomieex]

wth i watched this and its to hard :(

[AxjionAlesandres]

Ahahaha, That would be logical, and that would be wrong.

Que tu es marrant.

[evilazn]

What is the name of the song at the beginning of the video?

[ianif82]

you are so funny!

i love learning wiht u!

[NumberDne]

britain and france for live

[WilliamWarney]

Some words in french are very close to portuguese and as a brazilian man, I can say that it will be easier to learn french here. I jus' would love to have more time to it.

A example for the comparison of both languages down below:

tu est = tu és

elle est bonne = ela é boa jamais = jamais

quelque chose = qualquer coisa (algo)

[shadwoles]

Hi Remi , Just want to say that in french (I'm french , see my english xD) , we don't say "elle est une touriste américaine" but " c'est une touriste américaine" :) . Same for men.

I like your videos and english too ! Bye =)

[shadwoles]

[Armand2Maupertuis]

i am a bit surprised that so many people discover here that french and spanish have a lot of similiraties!

Latin languages (French, spanish, italian, etc.) have the same roots!

[baigandine]

@Armand2Maupertuis These languages are separated by hundreds of years, and grew up in tumultuous times of foreign invasions. As an English speaker, I can testify to how much a foreign language can alter a language, as it is easier for me to read French now than to read Old English, which is almost completely incomprehensible.

[firstandseventh]

Thank you. It's kind of you to help us out with these lessons. I am trying to relearn my rusty French.

[padilmj58]

Wow this helped a lot. Merci. :]

[lscdmg]

Alguien sabe como decir "que no daría yo por contemplarte, aunque fuera un solo instante" en francés??

Does anyone know how to say "what wouldn't I give to contemplate you, even though it was only an instant"?

[jremy7]

"Que ne donnerais-je pas pour te contempler, ne serait ce qu'un instant"

[lscdmg]

Esa!! Sos un capo man!!

[jremy7]

What does this mean?

[lscdmg]

I'm glad you were right!! That's something like "All right!! you are the man!! or you're great...

Right know I'm watching a french movie with subs... it's called la belle personne, have you watched it?

[jremy7]

No. Don't know that movie.

[lscdmg]

@jremy7 Don't watch it!!! Bad bad bad ending!!

[marianelayelen87]

@jremy7 this means that you are great! amazing! that's native spanish.. =)

[Nowl8]

@jremy7 it means you´re very cool in Argentina lol

[IAHASS]

@jremy7 LOL its spanish, xD I has learn english, now its time for French! and japanase....maybe...Thanks By the way!

Oh yeah! , He sais : "That's it! Your the Best man!"

[shoquese]

@jremy7

"Sos un capo man!!" means: you are the boss!! in argentinian spanish

I agree.

[kokerata]

@jremy7 it means like, your the man

[lscdmg]

@jremy7 Gracias!

[lscdmg]

@jremy7 Bonjour Remi, a friend of mine told me that the first part of the phrase could be "quoi je ne donnerais pas pour te contempler" instead of que ne donnerais-je pas pour te contempler...

Do they both work?? please answerr, thank you very much

[jremy7]

I'm right and he's wrong I'm afraid :)

[Bryannaclub]

@jremy7 this is so stupid!

[arylllies]

@lscdmg I am french too. The sentence your friend told you about is completely incorrect.

[jeffrx]

Thanks for the video Remy. I'm really learning a lot from you. I know you made these a while back, but they are still being used by new people like me!

I would like to say that i just found your videos two days ago and i'm spending hours watching them cause they're really good and i'm learning a lot! My native language is spanish and i have noticed that there are a lot of similarities among French and spanish as well. Anyways merci et au revoir!!!

[mikelcunha]

i think i'm able to answer my previous question after watching this lesson

merci

[Jurodrix]

Remy, Where are you from??? You sound french, but it's always making fun of your own accent...

Thanks for your videos!

[jremy7]

I was educated in France :)

[smithbrooklyn]

Well, no longer is "number 9" just an obscure reference from a song on the great Beatles White album. This is an excellent video for all those who are learning to read and speak French. Well done Remy ! I have repeated this one . . . well dare I say nine times now?

[jremy7]

What a strange song that is.

Une chanson assez bizarre :)

[Jona10washere]

je m`appelle jona10!

[bmwraja]

hai remy. i'm frm INDIA-> TAMIL NADU. i like to learn french i have started seeing u vdo's in utube. its really gr8. but i afraid of getting forget. coz here we speak in TAMIL language few of them in eenglish. how do keep in touch in french can u(remy) or any 1 who see this post help me out. remy i'm asking coz u responded to the person who post comment....

[jremy7]

Use the internet and follow French news, music and movies. A pen-pal also can work.

[andrewconrad2000]

Bonjour!! je suis Erica.

Je suis Americaine/Mexicaine (i asume thats how you spell it)

J'habite dans Cuernavaca, Mexique.

So i speak both english and spanish. The hard part with gender for me is that i expect the nouns to be the same in french as in spanish...

I've always wanted to learn french. I just started watching your videos, so i hope i can learn some with you.

Mercy

[jremy7]

De nada :)

[boule88170]

salut c'est bien tes cours, c koi le logiciel que t'utilise pour faire tout ces sons, effets ...

[jremy7]

J'utilise Sony Vegas, des CDs et mon imagination :)

[hollyhoneybee1410]

you know when you say i am an american tourist. would it be for a girl. je suis UNE touriste americaine. do you use UNE [feminine] because touriste/americaine is feminine or do u use UNE because the person is a girl

[jremy7]

The adjective "americaine" modifies the noun "tourist" and the adjective should always be agreeable with the noun it modifies both in gender and number.

Les touristes americaines (this would imply that it'd be a group of women only)

Le touriste americain

Les touristes americains

"That's French for ya!"

Rémy

[hollyhoneybee1410]

fanksss! am trying to watch all ur videos, they're real good. (Y) u making a german one?

[jremy7]

No sorry :(

[wowstefaniv]

Your videos are very good and i MAYBE know how to have a basic french conversation but i didn't understand anything those ppl were saying at end.They were using diffrent words :P

[Hitmann28]

Bah alors Remy , c'est comment les States :O) ?

[jremy7]

C'est bien ici :)

[witni94]

thanks so much. maybe i can get ahead of my class with your help :))))))))

[mariov7510]

Bonjour remy! Comment ca va, merci por todos los videos that you are posting on how to learn french(: J'suis Mexicano, haha. y estoy tratando de aprender francis. I already know english and espanol, and tu es a very good teacher! :D meri merci merci!!! haha

Remy is the best, i hope you can understand what my comment is saying, considering that you already know english and french and are trying to learn spanish.

[259972]

Remy, we learned that with words like Un, the n is silent, but a few times you say it like AHN, for example when you say Un ami, it sounded more like AHN ami, is this okay? or should it really sound liek Un(silent n) Ami

[jremy7]

I'm making the "little link" the liaison between "un" and "ami" because of the clashing vowel sounds between the two.

Also the "n" in "un" is not silent because you're saying the u+n which combined make a different sound that if you were to say the letters separately.

"That's French for ya!"

[usparker]

Remy, thx so much for making these videos, I appreciate it much. I was wondering if you could slow down a little bit though, it helps to hear how each word is pronounced correctly :D

[jremy7]

Well, the usual complaint is that I'm speak TOO slowly lol :)

[DarkZabuza74]

tu est francai ou anglais ?

tu parle tres bien francais ET anglais en tout cas

[jremy7]

Je suis français mais je vis aux Etats-Unis :)

[jremy7]

Je suis français mais je vis aux Etats-Unis.

[akutiska90]

[coastalpatty]

This is excellent - clear, sequential grammar and wonderfully helpful to me as a beginner. THANK YOU!!

[Kenoburned]

of course his french lesson r with France accent, but i way prefer my accent, the Québec accent way less gay then France accent...

[ImAliveIam]

Thanks so much Remy! I had a french exchange student (over summer so not exactly a student) a few days ago for almost a month, and I picked up a TINY bit of French, and I mean tiny. I might go to France next year to stay with her, so I wanted to learn a bit more, and your videos are helping a BUNCH. Thank you for making it pretty easy:)

[jsparrow666]

this is a great video!!!! i really feel like i am learning from you!! Merci!!

[Edilsongyn]

Merci, Rhemy;;;

[forever10muziek]

I am not American

[earlysunshine]

this video is one of the most helpful for me out of your videos. I just want to let you know that I truly appreciate your videos. :)

[jremy7]

Glad to be of help :)

[serulinghitam]

merci...

[Vespillo12]

these lessons are great. thanks!

[paske2001]

j´ai une amie qu´est française!

[FMH78]

whats the difference between HAVE in je Ai and tu AS?

[jremy7]

Many of you have observed that the "U' doesn't clash with the "A" even though both are vowels.

So you can say:

"Tu as cinq euro?"

or

"T'as cinq euro?" (Street French)

That's French for ya!

Rémy

[crisazvdo]

no difference.. the verb changes according to the person.. Jai is I have, tu as is You have

[Roger007Poore]

Correction: Je ai> J'ai

J'ai means I have

Tu as means You have

[SMMstudios]

merci

[littleokwaho]

I became way to excited when I remembered that tourist comes before american! Give thanks to public school french lessions!

[Kellybabay]

Bonjour monsieur, ca va?
