Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Vowels [a] [o] [i] [o] [u] are pronounced differently in French and English.
- 'Voici' means 'this is or 'here is'. It can be used to introduce somebody.
- 'Je suis', 'I am', can be used to introduce myself, and 'elle, il est', 'she, he is', to introduce others.
- Adjectives often add -e in the feminine form to describe a girl or woman. This is adjective agreement.
Common misconception
Adjectives remain the same when describing a boy or a girl.
Adjectives can change spelling based on the gender of the noun they describe. Adjectives often add an -e in the feminine form, when describing a girl or a woman.
