COURSE DESCRIPTION

This section covers the list of French fruit and vegetable words and vocabulary. I’ve put together the most common edible items found in both categories.

Did you know that according to a 2013 study, apples, grapes and oranges were the 3 most popular fruits in France? In the category of vegetables, tomatoes ranked #1.

Fruits and vegetables are common commodities found in our homes. As French learners, wouldn’t it be nice if we could call them all by their right names? I think so too 🙂

TARGET AUDIENCE

• You are a complete or false beginner of French (although students at higher levels can still benefit from practicing with flashcards and from listening to the audio clips).
• You want to be able to easily name most fruits and vegetables found at a French market.
• You don’t necessarily have French-speaking conversation partners readily available to start a simple Q&A talk.
• You’re looking to take your listening and speaking skills with confidence and at your own pace.

 
REQUIREMENTS

• You must have a computer and it must be connected to the internet.
• Your computer must be equipped with built-in or external speakers to be able to listen to the recorded French audio segments.
• No prior knowledge of French is required as everything will be taught.
• You must, at least, be familiar with the English and/or French alphabet, and if you were able to follow me until now, chances are I don’t have to worry about it on that point.
