mercie remy i found this very helpful though i do think it would be pretty cool to teach us cursing in the language in case one of us do get into an arguement the the other person wins
you always wear that csi shirt every video do you ever wash it and did you work for the csi ifn you say no then that means you are a csi member and if you say yes its the same thing really
@snappleflash Because they come from the verb 'aller' meaning 'to go'. They are called conjugations of the verb. In English we also conjugate verbs but the conjugations are easier to learn. In English the verb 'to go' is conjugated as follows: I go Thou goest (not used anymore but important to know about. 'Thou' is the second person singular) You go He/she/it goes We go You (plural) go They go In French: Je vais Tu vas Il/elle va Nous allons Vous allez Ils/elles vont
My question is that if your talking about a women but are a man yourself would you say "Elle est Canadienne" or "Elle est Canadien". basically what i'm asking are all words attached to femininity used as such or if your a man anything you say should be masculine. a little confused here.

I have noticed that in "tu es" there are adjacent vowels but you don't eliminate one of them. You seem to violate a general rule there. Perhaps the French don't consider these particular adjacent sounds to clash because you morph from one to the other so you can tell that they are different without a gutteral stop (as opposed to two 'e's next to eachother)?
good day sir. I have a question. You said that you cant have the vowels clashing, how about with "elle est"? The first ends with e and the second starts with e.
Superb...i'm vinay.....ur videos are very helpful to me...i have an insatiable thirst for learning languages....i want to learn all the languages of the world (oops.......probably i'm too greedy), so i thought of starting with french (afterall it was french who were strongest of the colonial empires after english that invaded india & after this i may go for portuguese and dutch.....!!!! ). I don't know why i've not seen ur videos till now....
@jremy7 hello Remy comment vas tu your lessons have helped me alot with your french make sure that you make lesson 14 my favourite part out of all your lessons are when the grammar police came on lesson 3. aurevoir Remy Merci reply.
dear great teacher! thanks a lot for the wonderful videos! I have really learned a lot from you. only one small comment if you allow me, please don't be worried that French may be difficult for some people, I feel that when you teach a new rule or irregular verb that you are afraid it would be difficult to be memorized, but don't worry, human mind can save much:) and I, as an Arabic teacher for non-native speakers, believe that much rules to be practiced are easier than few rules to be forgot.
salut! thank you for your videos, im really learning.. these videos helped me alot because someday i will be migrating to quebec, canada... and majority are french-speaking-people.... so, thank you so much for this basic learning
I have a question~~~ Can "elle est canadienne" be " ell'est canadienne'?" Because that I have learned so far, there are two E's clashing each other. Somebody answer me please!!
@khzzang9 for being French, I can tell you that it is not possible, no!
Because the last "e" of "elle" is silent so it is not a problem to say "elle est". Indeed, you read it like "ell'est" but you write it like "elle est". But with "tu ne es", the "e" of "ne" isn't silent, thus it sounds bad to say "ne es" => you say it and write it this way: "n'es". I hope this is helpful.
Hey Remy, my names kev and I find your teaching really helpfull, like alot. Ive just moved to the U.K. from South Africa, and in my new school I've had to start learning French, a lanuage I've never done before. And surprisingly it is the second easiest language I have had to learn. And i now speak 4 languges, French will be my fifth. Im 14 at the moment and You teaching is even better then my school teachers

dear remy i am from Barbados you should really ignore the people that say bad things u have thought me sooo much an i really hope you dont stop because your way of teaching is better to me than when i was at school an now im in Canada i find your videos very helpful so plz continue

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, all the way from sunny South Africa for the video's! They're GREAT for learning!

just bumped into your site and started viewing and learning your lessons in French. you are an amazing teacher!!! fantastic!! this is what i was looking for. the best French lessons i found here in u tube!!!
Your lesson are fantastic. I was really afraid of learning French, I'm 60 years old and I haven't money for special course in my country it's very expensive (Brazil).
Just wanted to say that your lesson are fantastic! I bought a popular CD set to learn french but it was difficult. Your lessons are much easier. Thank you so much for posting this. Honestly honestly, really good job! Keep up the good work!
Sure wish I would have paid more attention back in high school during french class. Now that I find myself going to France, Switzerland, and Belgium in May, I find your videos to be most helpful. Thanks Rémy.
these are very helpful xD. i love hearing french. to me hearing french is like listening to a beutiful song. so for a long time iv been wanting to learn french. your videos are very very helpful
Rémy, I've got a doubt about the sounf of 'est'. Sometimes I hear an open sound (like é), but sometimes I hear a closed sound (like è). Am I saying some nonsense? :) If not, both sounds are correct?
hell yeah hold it down for canada rhemy! lol canadians tend to be more french prone then americans but we arent really fluent unless you live in quebec
Remy your lessons are indeed very useful. I have a question, this lesson, you said in the beginning, 'I am Back', now I want to learn how do you say 'I will be back'?
I am a srilankan,really good in english.But I found very difficult learning this french. With the help of your video, I found it very easy to learn as well as quick.You are doing a brilliant job,hats off. Keep up the good work.
Despite my hatey comments I do like your videos, I spoke it over with my French Teacher and he told me that what you say is partially right, BUT, unfortunately, the way you speak is not used normally en France, the ne with je ne suis pas, is almost always used. Just a quick question btw, is etre an irregular verb, because it doesn't seem to follow the basic pattern. Please answer me, my lessons really aren't noting that to much.
ignore those who are giving you bad comments, your lessons ARE helpful and thank you very much! I was really really afraid of learning French, and thanks to you, Im a lot less afraid now!! Im HUngarian, so dont have problems with the nazal sounds or vowels, but Im struggling with "R" specially when its not at the end of a word. but just hearing you say it helps a lot! thanks, you are a star!! :)
c'est incroyable, je viens de me rendre compte aujourd'hui que la langue francaise peut être très difficile pour la pronnonciation et les lettres qu'on utilise pour ecrire, les s muets, les t muets etc. en tout cas très bonne video!!
bonjour remy, when i go to france and speak french to shop owners and in restaurants, do i use the familiar or the proper french?? thanks for videos, i have learned so much.
Why does cinq *not* have a "ee" sound? Was this a latin or italian or maybe occitan sound that snuck in? I ask, because the alphabet is i=ee and most other uses of "i" sound like "ee" Bonne Journée
I have a internet friend who is from Canada and speaks Canadian French. Can I get away with practicing with him. I know the Canadian French is different, but is much difference going to make my studies harder then necessary?
You have said that it is incorrect to place two vowels together, but in the case of "elle est canadienne" you didn't mention a vowel conflict. I wonder if there's is an apostrophe version for this case, or if this is correct as is.
@4TailedScorpion the 'e' at the end of the word 'elle' is not pronounced. therefore it sounds like "el est canadienne." so there is now clash of vowels if only one of them is pronounced.
Bonjour. Remy! Your lessons are AWESOME!! I've been following your lessons, and I love it! Thank you so ,much for making these videos!!! Je Suis Koreanne ( i'm korean, did I spell korean right? ) and on my way to learn my third language which is French..
Bonjour remy, i love your lessons!!! They are really useful.
I would like to ask a question, you said when two vowels are placed together ,one will be deleted, then what about elle est? Won't the vowels crash this time?
Bonjour remy, i love your lessons!!! They are really useful.
I would like to ask a question, you said when two vowels are placed together ,one will be deleted, then what about elle est? Won't the vowels crash this time?
i took the intro to french last year and i learned alot but forgot and then just thought i could learn some and be the person ahead i dint think i could get hooked this fast but i am.
taking notes and i am definitely getting the language back THANK YOU!!!
I'm Rina, J'suis n'es pas americain, Je suis Puerto Rican. Merci Remy.
I'm better at english but I do want say that because I'm fluent in both
english n spanish it's been so easy for me to learn n remember French :)
(example: French: Comment Ce Va / Spanish: como te va )
Mostly all French Pronounciation is in spanish. I'm better at understanding it than speaking it n thats only due to not having a french speaking friends, lol......A'bientot le monde, xoxo~Rina
Bonjour Remy parle de mon père français et english.So je sais comment écrire le français très bien, mais je ne peux parler il good.I connaître les bases comme '' comment allez-vous '' '' hello '' et stuff.But ces sont les choses principales, je voudrais savoir comment dire '' que faites-vous '' '' je veux aller... ''.Choses aiment ça.
@SymonGredge2 No, in some cases, we may get "to have" as auxiliary verb instead of "to be".
I am tall: Je suis grand
I am hungry: J'ai faim.
(though saying "Je suis affamé" would work too, but it's more like a real big crave for food when said this way; it then sounds more like "I am starved" to us, French speaking people.)
I'd bet it's too soon (you don't have a full hour of French, yet!) for such nuances at this point. But just so you know it's not always this litteral a translation.
bonjour, remy. this is the first time i watched your video and I'm hooked. Question: how do you say Stephen? thats my name? coz in english ir's read as "steeeven".. Merci!
I just want to say thanks, I allwas wanted to learn some other lenguage and this is it for me, you make it very simple and entertaining, I'm just going to keep coming back to see how far can I go with it. Once again Muchas gracias Remy
I´m very happy of learning french with you! I´m brazilian, used to learn french last year, but this year i ´m not having time! So, after midnight i listen to your lessons and goes trough my french! Thank you! Sorry for some mistakes in english!
It's pretty cool just how much French has in common with Spanish, obviously because of their Latin roots. Sorry to state the obvious, I'm just amazed at how many very similar words I'm coming across.
Ton Francais son different que la francais Canadienne est ce que tu vie chez France ou tu avez vie chez France? Parce que ton francais son beaucoup different que nos francais. Nous ne utillisons pas la "J'suis" chose ca c'est vraiment francais de France.
I love your lessons Remy!!!! :) I'm italian, I can speack english and I love french. With your video-lessons i can improve my english learnig french! cool! THANK YOUUUU <3
I prefer the 'street' version. If I went to France, I don't think everyone would speak so proper. Plus, I'm doing it merely for my friends...like, its neat to speak something different. So formal is not** necessary(;
Bravo! Je suis Québecoise et j'ai plusieurs ami(e)s qui apprennent le français et tes cours sont très bien. Jusqu'à maintenant ton Français de rue fonctionne au Québec aussi. (On sait que les expressions "familière" au Québec et en France sont différentes).
I am from argentina (south america) and i wanted to know how to say agrentinian. and you were right, as spanish is my natural language, it is easier, because in the end all this languages are variations from Latin.
Thank you
Je suis ...
ah! and can iProxy-Connection: keep-alive
Cache-Control: max-age=0
0say "mon nom est ..."? or "je m'appelle ... "?
and i have another doubt: my name is Dolores... how can i make it sound french? in eng
To Remy, when you talk about clash of vowels, is that only when the 2 vowels are the same,(ce est) or does it apply to different vowels as well because i remember in one of your videos there was, what I thought, was a clash of vowels, i believe it was u and e, but no connection was made. Could you please clarify this for me. Thank you in advance

I have noticed that in "tu es" there are adjacent vowels but you don't eliminate one of them. You seem to violate a general rule there. Perhaps the French don't consider these particular adjacent sounds to clash because you morph from one to the other so you can tell that they are different without a gutteral stop (as opposed to two 'e's next to eachother)?

I'm sorry, but nobody in France would say "Tu es pas.." (you're not...)

It should be "è" sounding but I can see where at times people might say it like an "é" sound.

Despite my hatey comments I do like your videos, I spoke it over with my French Teacher and he told me that what you say is partially right, BUT, unfortunately, the way you speak is not used normally en France, the ne with je ne suis pas, is almost always used. Just a quick question btw, is etre an irregular verb, because it doesn't seem to follow the basic pattern. Please answer me, my lessons really aren't noting that to much.

Dear Rémy,
ignore those who are giving you bad comments, your lessons ARE helpful and thank you very much! I was really really afraid of learning French, and thanks to you, Im a lot less afraid now!! Im HUngarian, so dont have problems with the nazal sounds or vowels, but Im struggling with "R" specially when its not at the end of a word. but just hearing you say it helps a lot! thanks, you are a star!! :)

c'est incroyable, je viens de me rendre compte aujourd'hui que la langue francaise peut être très difficile pour la pronnonciation et les lettres qu'on utilise pour ecrire, les s muets, les t muets etc. en tout cas très bonne video!!

bonjour remy, when i go to france and speak french to shop owners and in restaurants, do i use the familiar or the proper french?? thanks for videos, i have learned so much.

question: "elle est" is "ellE Est" maybe? So can we "ell'est"? Hmm, doesn't look right :-)
donnecoeur 1 year ago
@donnecoeur I think that since the 'e' at the end of 'elle' isn't pronounced there is no clash... no need for the collapse.

Why does cinq *not* have a "ee" sound? Was this a latin or italian or maybe occitan sound that snuck in? I ask, because the alphabet is i=ee and most other uses of "i" sound like "ee" Bonne Journée

I like your classes very much, the most important part is that, you actually reply to the questions asked, unlike other. Tres Bien!!

I have a internet friend who is from Canada and speaks Canadian French. Can I get away with practicing with him. I know the Canadian French is different, but is much difference going to make my studies harder then necessary?

Bonjour, Remy.
You have said that it is incorrect to place two vowels together, but in the case of "elle est canadienne" you didn't mention a vowel conflict. I wonder if there's is an apostrophe version for this case, or if this is correct as is.
Merci, Au revoir.
4TailedScorpion 1 year ago
@4TailedScorpion the 'e' at the end of the word 'elle' is not pronounced. therefore it sounds like "el est canadienne." so there is now clash of vowels if only one of them is pronounced.

Thanks a lot! =]

is the 'to be' the same in most cases in French? (I am tall, i am Remy, i am hungry..)
Or does it use a different "to be" for each instance?
Thanks!
SymonGredge2 1 year ago
@SymonGredge2 No, in some cases, we may get "to have" as auxiliary verb instead of "to be".
I am tall: Je suis grand
I am hungry: J'ai faim.
(though saying "Je suis affamé" would work too, but it's more like a real big crave for food when said this way; it then sounds more like "I am starved" to us, French speaking people.)
I'd bet it's too soon (you don't have a full hour of French, yet!) for such nuances at this point. But just so you know it's not always this litteral a translation.

It's pretty cool just how much French has in common with Spanish, obviously because of their Latin roots. Sorry to state the obvious, I'm just amazed at how many very similar words I'm coming across.

I prefer the 'street' version. If I went to France, I don't think everyone would speak so proper. Plus, I'm doing it merely for my friends...like, its neat to speak something different. So formal is not** necessary(;

To Remy, when you talk about clash of vowels, is that only when the 2 vowels are the same,(ce est) or does it apply to different vowels as well because i remember in one of your videos there was, what I thought, was a clash of vowels, i believe it was u and e, but no connection was made. Could you please clarify this for me. Thank you in advance
