Learning to speak French is not a daunting task It should be a pleasurable effort and one that could bring you enormous rewards One of the main reasons for which French is an easy language to learn is because it is well organised This book is dedicated to help you construct the French language from building blocks that I will provide for you It will also demonstrate how you can train your brain to speak French such as a toddler would and how it is not necessary for you to attend any course to learn to speak the language
The most fun you will have with learning French is perhaps when you speak to yourself In fact I recommend that you do so on a regular basis Getting used to the pronunciation of every word is one of the most important things that you can do when learning this language Besides which your brain needs to familiarize itself with the sounds of the French language This training is a type of immersion but one that you can do easily at home on your own time
Therefore this book will provide you with the guidelines and assistance that you will need to make your journey into the learning of the language a lot easier and much more effective
Contribution to the training program of this book was by a dear friend Sasha Devereaux
Although not a professionally accredited teacher Sasha perfected and has used the self-immersion training system described in this book French An Easy Language To Learn by Jean-Pierre Moreau for many years while tutoring English students of various ages in Canada and abroad

Speaking Better French, The Key Words and Expressions You'll Need Every Day
ISBN: Binding: Kindle Edition Edition: Author(s): Saul H. Rosenthal Publisher: Saul H Rosenthal Number of Pages:
This book and "More Key Words and Expressions" which followed it have been hailed by reviewers as a unique and innovative idea
They give you the absolutely essential words that you need to navigate everyday French conversation Not the textbook formal words but the expressions that real people in France use when they talk to each other
You'll learn when to use and when not to use words and expressions like truc foutu Oh-la-la Coucou payer en liquide and merde You'll learn how to faire un bise quelqu'un how to say you are sorry what les grandes surfaces are and how to tell someone to shut up You'll learn what a goter is and an apritif dnatoire You'll find out that Ce sale chat doesn't mean the cat is dirty that passer an exam doesn't mean to pass the exam and lots lots more
And it's all written in a conversational style with each word or expression explained and illustrated with examples in French and their translations in English
You'll see why a reviewer of Key Words and Expressions on amazoncom said:
"If you really want to learn spoken French you need this book You'll need other books as well you'll need audio materials and you'll need live language experience preferably in France But this book is a necessity"
And why another wrote:
"Perhaps the most amazing thing about this book is that it took until 2007 for anyone to think of writing it The author's insight is right on target This book does indeed fill a huge and inexplicable gap in the otherwise very crowded market for books on learning French (Come to think of it I haven't found such books in any of the three foreign languages I've studied besides French)"
And it's FUN to read
Comments from others:
I think your books are wonderful You have made a fantastic contribution to the French language profession --- Professor Judy Baughin Raymond Walters College
As with your previous book I am amazed at how fun to read as well as incredibly informative the book is It's a wonderful tool --- Professor Brigitte Humbert Middlebury College
I just wanted to let you know that the copy of " Key Words and Expressions" arrived yesterday I looked through it last night and I have to say it is just the kind of book I would have liked to have had when I was teaching myself French oh-so-many years ago --- Professor John Moran Director of Language Programs NYU
Your little books are great ---- Professor AG Fralin Washington and Lee University
I love your books They are easy to navigate and they are extremely useful to non-native French speakers Maybe I'm odd but I actually enjoy reading them at night in bed before falling to sleep they're that entertaining ---- Professor John Turvaville University of Tennessee Knoxville
I've been perusing Key Words for the past couple of days and it's great fun A feature I'm really liking is the focus on the day-to-day spoken language which doesn't always follow grammar rules I'm going to think how I could implement some of your expressions into my fall class What a great idea for a book --- Professor Herta Rodina Ohio University
I very much like what you have done with the latest book The expressions you introduce are so much a part of everyday conversational life in France Too bad that more French texts don't teach them --- Professor John Romeiser University of Tennessee Knoxville
