How to Learn French Language Faster: Speaking vs Reading
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 04. 2024
- If you’ve spent any amount of time in France, or even just watching French TV shows, you’ve probably noticed already that spoken French is NOT simply written French read aloud. Actual spoken French is almost a completely different language than technical written French… which is likely what you were taught in school.
This is something I talk about a lot at Comme une Française. In fact, we specialize in everyday spoken French, and we focus ONLY on the specifics of speaking, understanding, and being understood in everyday spoken French.
But talking about it as a concept is one thing. Seeing it in action is another! That’s why, in today’s video, I’m going to show you some very specific examples where you can clearly see just how different spoken French can be compared to written French. My hope is that these examples will help you better understand some of spoken French’s “unwritten rules”, and encourage you to focus on prioritizing what’s really important to gain spoken French fluency.

At Comme une Française, we specialize in everyday spoken French. We focus on three unique aspects that are different from school French, self-study books, Duolingo, etc:
1. We focus only on the specifics of speaking/understanding/being understood in everyday French and have unique ways to help you learn it properly & faster.
2. We focus on shortcuts to help you make progress faster, which also means we tell you exactly what you can stop learning to prioritize what’s really important.
3. We use French culture as the subject to make it fun and interesting for adults.
Take care and stay safe.

No wonder I couldn’t catch up with native speakers speed😮
Hello 👋How are you doing today?
It's because they Speak so fast!
I was taught how to read and write French in school. It is not enough. We need to have short oral exchanges - not yet conversations - in primary school every day, without seeing the written words (English spelling is enough to be learning at one time). Thank you so much, Geraldine, for your brilliant teaching.
I think the way we learned in school was so that we could get the basics and the formals down solid, so that when it came time for us to move onto real daily spoken French, we could more easily do so. I think French teachers in the US should incorporate real everyday spoken French in their lessons alongside their teachings of formal basics. I love that you are teaching real spoken French. I like the method you are using. I received it in my email yesterday and found it to be quite useful! It’s not as difficult as I thought it might be - transitioning to everyday spoken French. The use of the apostrophe and eating “ ne “ and eating certain vowels is a concept that has been easy for me to grasp, so far. At first, I was worried that I would have to relearn everything that I had worked so hard to gain, but thankful, no … it has not been that way with your lesson. I will keep tuning in and will read more about your 30 day challenge after I post this comment. If the 30 day challenge will help me with real every day spoken French, I’m all in!
AAAA so hard to hear!! tu vois so soft!!!
It's because they Speak so fast!
Merci Géraldine. Cette vidéo m’aide sûrement à mieux comprendre le français parlé du quotidien. Votre enseignement a été claire et bien instructif. Bonne weekend. À plus.
Thank you! C’est fantastique! I am so tired of sounding like the old lady that I am. And yes! I did learn French SIXTY years ago. You are a treasure! Vous êtes une trésor❤.
OUI!!!!! J'AI ATTENDU POUR UN NOUVELLE VIDEO! MERCI GERALDINE 😁
C’est une video bien utile. Je préfère les videos dans lesquelles vous parlez plus français and moins anglais. Plus que vous utilisez le vrai français parlé, plus on est capable de l’apprendre et le comprendre. Merci.
Incroyable ! Vous l'expliquez si bien. Ce style de leçon est merveilleux. Je vous remercie !
J’aime bien cette façon d’apprendre le français. Merci, Géraldine!
Merci beaucoup Géraldine pour cette leçon très riche en informations mais surtout en pratique. Après plus de 10 ans d'apprentissage de français formel à l'école et à la fac, cette vidéo m'a permis d'apprendre sur le français de tous les jours et c'est une chose qu'on ne trouve pas dans les manuels.
Je viens de la chaine de Zoé Languages qui nous a conseillé de suivre votre chaine
i loved the text with both languages because i dont have to stop the video ando go to translate
Thank you for this video ❤
Thanks a ton for this exercise. Would like to have more of this kind if possible. Found it very useful.
J'aime bien vos vidéos encore - merci comme d'hab😘
That's great Geraldine❤❤❤ Merci❤❤
This was great! We can listen to the formal way of saying something and then the everyday French way. The formal way plus the explanation made it easier for me to understand more of the everyday French when I listened. to it.
Hello 👋How are you doing today?
C'est chouette cette léçon. J'ai tout compris. 🎉 Merci Géraldine!

Nous le faisons aussi en anglais, mais je pense que c'est moins le cas en espagnol parlé. Nos oreilles y sont habituées et c'est plus rapide. Merci pour cette leçon très utile, Geraldine.
I know the grammar and understand all kinds of writing but don't understand a word when they speak! 😅
I am german and we hat 8 years English and 7 years French. I Was lucky to unverstanden both .
Merci Géraldine..J'adore ta coiffure..très stylée
J’aime bien ça
Merci beaucoup pour cette lecon tres utile! 😊👍
The correct version sounded beautiful. I suppose I should watch to the rest of the video. (PS An advertisement interrupted at the right time and I seemed to understand it all as it sounded clear to my ear.)
Hello 👋How are you doing today?
To me it is the difference between savoir and connaitre.
The school version is all in the head, but the real version connects with everything, the understanding is easier.
Knowing it by heart.
Hello 👋How are you doing today?
I would love to take an intensive workshop with you in Grenoble.

Avez-vous appris le Français dans les fortifications autour de Paris ? Il ya une manière plus élégante de parler.

For me the first version is a little bit hard, but the second (the real spoken French) is easier to understand. It's like you don't need to think about translating each word for understanding the meaning. Maybe because I know some tricks (for ex.: in 2017 my Russian speaking French teacher said that there's no "Ne" in negative sentences in spoken French, like in Spanish you don't need to say pronouns, because form of the verb will help you) and several years ago I had lots of trips in France and conversations with my French friends, also I still watch movies in French with English subs, listen to the radio and use Duolingo. Now I'm trying to resume learning French and it's really hard.
🎉🎉
So what are we supposed to stop doing to speak French better??
Stop treating it like a formal essay.
Keep practicing! Practice makes perfect! My Mother was born & raised in Paris, but was Armenian. I've been understanding & Speaking French since I was 2yrs old.
My Dad was Military & we lived in Germany for 5yrs, &
I used to Speak German too, but forgot it. We were required to take it in School. I've lived all over the world, but have always gone to American schools.
I miss Speaking French with my Mother. If you don't use it, you lose it. My sister & I still Speak French & have a few relatives left in France. It's a Beautiful, Gorgeous, Sexy Language!
Not easy to Learn, but I Love it! We Miss our Mother Lots since her passing. She was the Joy of our Family & We have many wonderful childhood memories in Paris! 😢😊❤️
