Hello scrublings! Since I'm halfway through my first semester of French, that automatically makes me an expert. Tired of being an english muffin? Well, today you're getting french-fried!

Learn to Speak French in 5 Minutes

Just follow these few easy steps to start your journey to frenchiness!

1. "Alors"

Don't ask what it means. It doesn't matter. Just say it often, anywhere in a sentence. Preferably multiple times.
"Alors" is pronounced ah-lore. (Don't forget to gargle your "r"! It's the french thing to do.)

2. "D'Accord"

Pronounced similar to "decor," it literally means "in agreement," or the frenchie equivalent to "okay." Should also be used often. Combined with "alors," you have just made your first french sentence. Congratulations!

3. Liason everything


"Liason" is french for "slur your words together." You should do it with every single word.
To use a proper liason, the last sound in a word is combined with the first sound in the next word. Thus, "it is" is now pronounced "ih-teez." Practice it out loud with the following sentence!
"Alors, French is the coolest language, d'accord."
If you said:
"AlorsFrenchisthecoolestlanguagedaccord"
très bien! You are now extremely french.

Stay tuned for Lesson 2, and keep eating those snail pancakes!
