Spoken French is quite different from the technical, written French you learned in school. In fact, it’s almost a completely different lesson! School French unintentionally sets you up for failure to progress fast in speaking and understanding everyday French. For example, written exams prioritize grammar and conjugation that are rarely used in everyday conversations. There are several verb tenses that you may have learned in school that we don’t really use in spoken French, such as le futur. Sorry to those of you who spent many hours memorizing conjugation tables! I’ll explain this further in today’s lesson, with some examples of what to use instead. 0:00 - Intro 0:27 - Don’t use “le futur simple” 2:02 - Practice with “le futur proche” 4:32 - Your turn now: Practice! 10:56 - Final Challenge ⭐ DOWNLOAD THE PDF OF THIS LESSON Read, save and/or print the full written lesson here (free) - https://www.commeunefrancaise.com/blo... 🇫🇷 LEARN FRENCH WITH GÉRALDINE Ready to see faster progress in your spoken French fluency through consistent practice?
