  • How to improve French accent? In this video, I give a general blueprint of what you have to do if you want to have very good French pronunciation.
    Learning phonetics is important for speaking and understanding. How are you going to speak if you can't pronounce every sound? Or how can you understand if you are not able to tell apart similar sounds of French?
    I'm here to help you. My name is Anastasia. I have a degree in linguistics and DALF C1 certificate. And my pronunciation is SO French that natives always think I'm from Paris (never lived there :p)
    Write me down below if you want to see more videos about French phonetics. Let me know that you're interested! ;)

    You sound so French, speaking English, lol. I am American studying French. I have been struggling and I finally realized that speaking the French way of articulating is the most important thing to learn well before learning the vocabulary, the grammar and especially even before learning to translate.
    Why? Light dawns on Marblehead.
    I don't want to translate, I want to think in French, and the only way to do that in any new language is to be able to reflect inside of our mind and within our thoughts in the same phonetics of any given language before we ever can begin to speak it properly, or even recognize exactly what we are hearing in order to respond to it.
    🥰Thank you so much for this, Nastya.😍

    I want to learn to speak French beautifully! Just like you!
    I have been studying for years but struggle with some basic sounds. Did you ever make a video with all French sounds? I see several other videos but it would be great to have the video that you speak of, one with all sounds. I will definitely work my way (slowly) through all your videos! Thank you so much for making these!

    I have been spending several months now as a Russian beginner. I studied Greek in 5th grade, so that was an advantage. I also studied some French in that same time period, so I have started to revive my French training here on line. If you would like to improve your accent when speaking English, my first piece of advice is to make certain you do not drop the article "a." Many people whose first language is Russian have a habit of the dropping the "a," and in fact, when I produce a Russian accent, it is one of the things I do to reproduce that accent. An example would be a Russian friend asking me, "Art, do I have Russian accent?" instead of, "Art, do I have a Russian accent?"
    Another distinctly Russian sound is to pronounce the English word "listen" as "leeesen," since the Russian "i" has a long "e" sound to it. The English '"i" in "listen" is more like the sound "eh," spoken for a short moment. It is so short that it is barely there at all, but it is indeed there as a very short vowel between the"l" and the "s." It should never sound like a long "e" when used in a word like "listen."

    I thought you were French until you said your name. Will you be doing more videos on pronunciation? I took a semester of French in 1984. Never took any more classes and I’ve been told I pronounce quite well. Then I started learning Russian five years ago. I’ve been told I pronounce good as well.

  • @CarlosSolisProductions

    I had a feeling that you are Russian but I thought that you may have some 'French' connection that's very intimate and that was why you relate to the excellent 'French' accent. Perhaps you lived in a French language community. Delighted to make your acquaintance. The way you articulate in 'French' is awesome, just the way some master Spanish or English over here in America. Keep up the good work. I see you are in Los Angeles, CA now, so reach out, don't be shy! I know you are striving to push for perfection in the 'French' language, but to me, having an accent in 'ANY' language and not the 'native' has helped me a lot, more so that if I had perfected it like a native. By the way, I speak 5 languages and understand some Russian since I dated a girl from Moscow while at the University of North Carolina. I do enjoy watching you teach since you take it very seriously as I take my life. Seriously FUN!! ciao bella 😀

    • @french.pronunciation
      @french.pronunciation  Před 3 lety

      Start immediately even without any prerequisites. Of course, the more you know, the better: you’ll start recognizing sounds, words, phrases. That’s fun! But the main point of listening in this case is more about getting used to French speech in general, getting the idea of how they speak(intonations, sounds etc), building neuron connections, preparing your brain to learn French.
