French Alphabet


SALUT A TOUS!
This is a lesson on the French Alphabet… (To Brenda from Hong Kong, I hope this will help :-) )

In my several years of French teaching, I have found that many among language students would not pay too much attention to the 26 letters of the French alphabet, and yet they are quite important and should be memorized for proper pronunciation. Some of the letters like e q r or u can pose some difficulties to many non-native French speakers, and thus it is important you spend some time learning them, one letter at a time.
