Je Parle Français... Un Peu by Dierdre Wolownick Pdf
Je parle francais... un peu: Foundations in Beginning French teaches beginning French in a simple, clear, effective way. Many language textbooks focus solely on grammar, and are exclusively academic in focus. This engaging, interactive textbook makes students comfortable speaking and interacting in the target language, and puts them in charge of their own learning. Based on the premise that students best learn a language by using it to communicate with others rather than relying on technology, Je parle francais... un peu purposely steers students away from CDs, DVDs, and frenetic on-line learning. Instead, the book provides numerous opportunities for students to speak and converse with each other through a variety of activities, such as dialogues, stories, cultural readings, tongue-twisters, word games, and famous quotes. Also included are les Conversations fran aises, which are in-class skits that encourage students to have fun and experiment with the language without feeling intimidated by the need to be grammatically perfect. The book is concise, containing only the amount of material that can be covered in a one-semester course. Tear-out worksheets are built into the text, which are perfect for homework assignments or additional practice, thus making it unnecessary to buy a supplemental workbook for the course. The tone of the book is un-intimidating, and conversational. The ten chapters of the book teach the language through high-interest topics including college life and personal technology. Extensively class-tested, the material in Je parle francais... un peu gives students what they need to successfully master written and spoken French at the beginning level. Je parle francais... un peu is written for French 1 and 2 at the community college or lower division university level. It can also be used in Beginning French at the high school level. Dierdre Wolownick is Professor of French, Spanish, and ESL/EFL at American River College, Sacramento, CA. Since 1971, she has taught five foreign languages to students of all ages in New York, France, California, and Japan. Her credentials include an M.A. in French and B.A. in Romance Languages/Secondary Education (Queens College, CUNY), a D.U.E.L. (l'Universit de Reims, France), a Certificate in TESOL (UCLA), and many years evaluating international essays for Educational Testing Service. Having learned eight languages, Professor Wolownick knows what one needs to know in order to acquire language.

The Simple Way to Learn French 2 by Jean-Marie D'Harcourt Pdf
In book one, we established the idea that language is an essential aspect of the human condition, and provided you with the basics for learning some conversational French. In book two, we expand upon this by introducing you to other aspects of grammar which may not have been previously covered. Again, we find ourselves asking questions like "Where can I buy some French paintings?" "Who is the new president of France?" or "How much do we pay to watch Les Blues at the Parc des Princes Stadium?" We may not have the answers, but we can definitely help you ask the questions, in the simplest of ways. Like its predecessor, this book contains a lexicon of some of the most used words in everyday French conversation. It makes use of the age old learning techniques of repetition and rote memorization, in an attempt to condition the brain for learning French as quickly as possible. In addition, an auxillary feature called story mode is included to aid the reader in a bid to test comprehension. Finally, it should be noted that while this book will aid in a visual recognition and comprehension of words in the French language, students must also have an understanding of their proper pronunciations. To help with this, there is an accompanying audiobook that will be made available, in order to enable listening lessons. And so, from the beautiful city of Paris, the city of croissants, baguettes and all things fashionable, we present to you, The Simplest Way To Learn French 2.

Foundations of French Syntax by Michael Allan Jones Pdf
Designed for students, this detailed analysis of the principal areas of French grammar combines the insights of modern linguistic theory with those of more traditional grammarians. Theory is placed firmly in the service of description and analysis, and students are guided to an understanding of the French language which will complement the information offered by traditional reference grammars. The book includes discussion of verbs and verb phrases, voice, tense and mood, the noun phrase and pronouns, prepositions and variations in sentence-structure. The author pays special attention to those areas of French grammar which pose difficulties for an English-speaking reader. Each chapter is followed by a set of problems and exercises, and by a useful guide to further reading. Foundations of French Syntax assumes no prior knowledge of linguistics, and will appeal to students and teachers of linguistics, French and other Romance languages.
