This is very helpful! I found I just can’t stop watching until finish it. Your explanation is clear and the examples are brilliant! Merci beaucoup!
I especially love the exercise where Geraldine shows the difference in pronouncements of E É È with the movement of the mouth from "O"😮 into variation of a smile☺😄. That made an excellent point and now it will be easy to remember 😀👍
You are a great French teacher. Reminds me of when I went to school to learn French for the first time. Merci beaucoup Geraldine!
Great lecture, I really like the plenty repetitions Thank you Geraldine ☺️
That's so helpful, thank you!
Ça m’a beaucoup plu merci.
This was one of the best pronunciation videos I've ever watched! Very easy to follow and pronounce correctly.
Thanks Géraldine, this is very helpful.
This is great! Thank you!
very helpful pronunciation work!
great lesson Geraldine, the repeat and practice was perfect, also the faster more french spoken is the best for me to practice plus listening to the different speeds helps me to understand when people speak, this I find so difficult. Thank you
The best French lesson on CZcams!
Wonderful! I'm beginning to hear and repeat the different, subtle "e" sounds!
This lesson is really helpful in learning and practicing the difference in this difficult, for non French, sound. Thank you Geraldine!❤
Merci beaucoup madame pour cette leçon 😊
I'm so grateful for this complete explanation
Back to basics! Love it
Tu as bien expliqué la différence entre les sons de "e".
This is literally the first time I finally understand how to pronounce the E sounds in French, thank you so much for this video!
Thank you Geraldine 🤗😊
This was a challenge but a lot of fun!
MERCI 😍
Very good class...!!
Very helpful
Bonjour, pouvez vous faire une vidéo sur "j'y pense versus j'en pense" s'il vous plaît?
This video Very helpful fr me. Thanks fr repeat again & again the sentence. I m learning franch . how to read franch . 👍👍👍
thank you
This is an awesome explanation but is there a site that gives a more comprehensive list of the words with the e sound in words like je, le, te? As opposed to the words with the other two e sounds? Or which lists all the rules to distinguish all three e sounds?
Good!
I think I should mention that there're 2 other pronunciations that don't exactly match up with what's taught anywhere.
/e/ also sounds like /a/ in adverbs ending in -emment (basically a spelling variation of -ammant): fréquEmment, antécédEmment
/é/ sounds like /è/ when it's in a closed syllable, basically meaning if /é/ is followed by an audible consonant sound not followed by vowel, it's pronounced /è/: évÉnement (é-VÉNE-ment, *n* is audible because of the *e* (that's omitted) and followed by another consonant sound), mÉdecin (MÉDE-cin). Please note that due to the 1990 reforms allow the original and the new pronunciation respelling, so it's either événement (é) or évènement (è).
hi i'm nine with a bad grade but this is helping me so nice videos and thanks.
Il y a une orthophoniste française qui donne ce type de leçon, avec des précisions sur la position de la langue, de ma mâchoire, des lèvres, entre autres ..
So general rules for the three es:
e/eu/eux
e(aigu)/e(aigu)e/er
e(grave)/ai/es/e(circumflex)/ett
A pattern I noticed: When e is the second to the last vowel before the last syllable (usually te or re), the e becomes grave when normally it is aigu.
Just my two cent euros. You're all welcome to criticize.
4:32 aucune liason entre "chez André"?
Maybe a lesson on "liaison interdit | obligatoire | facultatif"?
Is the first "e" in mener silent? i hear mne and why first "e" in cette is not silent like in mener?
Stp- pouvait vous dirait walk and work plus clairement, cheers
Ah c'est Géraldine. Ça fait longtemps, la dernière fois que j'étais là.
Merci CZcams algorithmes 😂
I think the ê of fête is meant to be a long è sound [fɛːt].
Linguist will also distinguish between the e ([ə] ) sound in "petit" or "je" from the e ( [œ] ) in "Soeur", "jeune" or "beurre". Both [ə] and [œ] are quite different from the "eu" [ø] sound from "jeu" or "eux" or "jeûne". The "eu" [ø] sound pretty much always require the spelling "eu".
But there are strong regional variations, even the ê gets pretty much pronounced é in Liège
Hey, the ê isn't really meant to be a long è sound, most of the time it's just to mark that there was an "s" in the word in ancient french like "feste" (feast ;)) for fête. There is "ê" that are pronounced é like "gêné", "vêtue", "grêlon" !
@@claramkc Yeah I know. It was just a comment about fête.
Short or long comes more from the structure of the word but there is a certain correlation. Normal/Short in belle, pelle, blette. Long in bêle, frêle, quête. This being said, the difference can be subtile and will not always show up when written in phonetic.
(Lookup bêle and belle in the wiktionnaire and they'll both be noted the same \bɛl\ but listen to the pronunciation and you'll hear the difference.)
Merci, mais tú as oublilé "e" Canadièn. eh?
Otro vídeo con el complejo de inglés...
may be it's my southern accent, i pronounce "projet" with a "é" sound, not "è".... usually, all my "et" sound "é", not "è". (et, projet, bonnet, Monnet, parapet, coquet, ...)
A lot of é and è sounds are interverted with regional accents.
Comment prononces -tu les e caducs ?
@@juandiegovalverde1982 qu'appelles-tu les e "caducs" ? les e muets ? En général, je les prononce plus appuyés que dans le français standard. Ils sont plus sonores. un peu comme si l'accent tonique n'était pas au même endroit dans le mot.
Is there a difference between È and Ê?
In addition to pronunciation, can you also in future explain French prosody =
rhythm, stress, intonation ? The unique
French prosody is a large part of spoken
language.
Merci beaucoup.
What's the difference : Comme une française / Commune française ?
"(une) commune française" = (a) French town (or French commune). "Comme une Française" (with a majuscule) = Like a French woman.
It's the same pronunciation though! Mostly. Some people might say the "o" in "commune" is deeper / more closed ("o fermé"), while "o" in "comme" is more open / sharper ("o ouvert"). But it's subtle, and just like "open / close e", it depends on people and the specific sentence, so let's say it's the same pronunciation.
J'ai la tendance à maudire la phonétique de langue française pur ses subtilités, mais ma langue maternelle (portugais) n'est pas si différente 😄
Sous titres !!!’nnnmmm
@@shauncummings2361 il a dit subtilités. Subtilité est la qualité d’être subtil.
Merci 🤩
Si es clase de francés, tiene que ser en francés...
My last name is French and I don't believe that I pronounce it correctly. It is Bergés . I pronounce it Berje phonetically. 🧐
three years in french classes and still cant remember or pronounce this right
Wait so “Les” is pronounced the same as é or è ? 😵
@Beaudile oh thank you so much! Maybe that’s why I keep hearing a different pronunciation from various speakers.
It's confusing in the examples . Better to put the phonetic spelling too please
