As mentionned above, French in Canada, or more precisely in Quebec, is TOTALLY different in its pronunciation. The question then would be, do you want to learn French as French in France or French as International understandable French, and thus any kind of French would be ok.moomoo wrote:Yeah, that website is indeed gd considering that it's a free online site for people to pick up a foreign language! But I need someone to guide me in the pronunciation and probably the grammar.
Haha... Now that you (afrenchmaninsingapore) mention! There's really some error in his French. Anyway, I have tried to pick up French by myself but I am having trouble with the pronunciation like I mentioned earlier. Yeah, movies are a good way to pick up a new language but it might be inadequate. Besides, I need to acquire a basic knowledge of French (written and spoken) in 2 1/2 months so learning through movies might be too slow. This is because I'll be going for student exchange in Canada where I would have to learn a "Basic French 1" module which is not for beginners... Btw, do you know where I can find French movies? I think they might aid in my learning of French despite it being inadequate. Thanks!!
