Vocabulaire

Champagne bicycle tour

This page is designed to help our travelers to learn simple french phrases and words

 


Additional Info

Each word list is geared to teach you one of three different skills, depending on what you'll need to do with the vocabulary:

- LISEZ (READ): for signs in the airport, train station, on the street.

- ÉCOUTEZ (LISTEN): for phrases that French people (a train conductor, a waiter) might say to you. (Wouldn't it be nice to know what they're saying?)

- PARLEZ (SPEAK): for questions you might need to ask (Where is the station? Is this the right train?)

When you have finished with the instruction, you should be able to:

- Read and understand all vocabulary marked with LISEZ;

- Hear and understand all vocabulary marked with ÉCOUTEZ or E;

- Speak all vocabulary marked with PARLEZ or P (make sure you practice saying these words after the speaker).
