JESSICA: NATIVE FRENCH TEACHER, FOUNDER OF FRENCH YOUR WAY
About this episode

This episode is the first part of a series about how to ask questions in French. If you ever travel to France and engage in any interaction with a native French speaker, you’ll definitely need to ask them questions in French! In order to give you the confidence to do so, this episode will focus on the 3 ways to ask a same question in French. All you need is to be aware of the 3 possible structures so you put words in the correct order! I’ll cover both closed questions (also called Yes/No questions) and open questions.
