SPEAK LIKE A NATIVE
About this episode

This episode is a confession, I think I should feel a smidgen of shame by revealing the kind of litterature I read on the beach but what wouldn't I do for the French language. If you have a little guilty pleasure like me, you're very welcome to share in the comment section, so that I feel a little bit less lonely. The grammar focus today is for A levels but please, B levels, I suggest you review it too if you don't master the demonstrative pronouns. Check them out in your grammar book to know what I'm talking about. As for the vocabulary, we're going to study or review a lot of phrases and words about books and litterature. If you're interested in the transcription, all the vocab and the grammar focus, you know where to go, I say it every time. Head over to frenchblabla.org to download the study guide. Ok, time for the story guys, c'est parti !

 

In this episode

  • The shameful books I read during the summer
  • Review the demonstrative pronouns
  • A challenge for you to shine
