N B. The six letters a, e, i, o, u, y, are called vowels, as in English; the remaining letters, c w, x, z, are consonants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Key to the First French Book: Containing the Pronunciation, Translation and Grammar of the French Text, With Explanation of Idioms In a book designed for self-instruction, it may seem ah surd to state at the outset that a speaking knowledge of a language can hardly be obtained from books. It is evident that a language consists of sounds and that one can no more learn a sound from an explanation than one can get a correct idea of a flavour from a description a sound must be heard, a colour seen, a flavour tasted, an odour smelled. There are hardly any sounds in one lan guage perfectly identical with those of another language; there is merely a more or less close resemblance between them; you must therefore hear the foreign sounds before you can produce them correctly. Phonographs will not do for this purpose, not only because their reproduction of at least some sounds is rather imperfect, but also because the ear makes the foreign sounds similar to those with which it is familiar in your mother tongue, unless a teacher draws your attention to the peculiarity of that' particular sound and drills you until you hear it and utter it correctly. Furthermore, in order to understand and speak a lan guage, the sounds reaching the ear must be so intimately connected with the mental impressions (ideas) that the lat ter are spontaneously and immediately made or awakened as soon as the former 1s heard, and the ideas in their turn must, through direct connection with the organs of speech, cause the proper expression to be immediately on your tongue's end. The normal way of learning a foreign language is, therefore, to have a native teacher (or, still better, several teach ers alternating) who speaks to you and makes you speak the foreign language only, teaching the expressions of concrete meaning by object lessons, those of abstract meaning through association (context), grammar and idioms through examples and practical drill. These principles form the basis of the Berlitz Method. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Principles of French Pronunciation This book is for English-speaking people. It has a three fold object. First, it should serve those general readers or speakers of French whose feeling for the language is such that they will not rest content with a mere rough-and-ready approximation to the way in which it is pronounced by Frenchmen. Secondly, its concern is with teachers and their pupils already devoted to the direct method of modem-language study, as also with those who are liberal enough to give that method a trial. Thirdly, it may furnish a handy epitome of its subject for academic students of French, whose needs must be met more in detail by the advanced investigations of the recognized specialists, and particularly those native to the language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pronouncing Reading Book of the French Language: Particularly Calculated to Render the Speaking of French Easy to the American Student, and Grounded on a New System of Comparative French and English Pronunciation The most important point to secure in a modern language is, first, its pronunciation; of this great desideratum, in French, we shall treat presently. Pronunciation being once acquired, the only effective ways and means we know for learning French as a living language, are various practical exercises, which should be performed, if possible, with both the aid of French and English text books. Hence, for teachers and learners, two very different stand-points, the first one of which - the French part - is now our groundwork. The second part seems also to demand some exclusive, special studies and instruments, - a weighty subject, - with which we, here, can have nothing to do but to state a fact that must be told. The use of English text books, for translation into French, and for extemporaneous speaking exercises, is not an easy one; and so long as there are no proper books purposely prepared for it, - with notes, various readings, grammatical explanations, and key, - this kind of teaching will remain an impossibility for American teachers, and a real difficulty for all native French instructors. Therefore the best means of studying and practicing the making of sentences, in one word, - the speaking of French, - cannot he admitted in schools for want of a school book! But all French and American teachers can use a French text for the same purpose, and, indeed, with great success, if it be the right reading, which, alone, will prove to work easy throughout the indispensable exercises described in a further page. A Frenchman does not speak like a book; and it is his conversational style that should, first, be the model; this is - at least by the light of logic and experience - the straight road to success.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from French Pronunciation: Principles and Practice and a Summary of Usage in Writing and Printing The path of any one undertaking to furnish a guide to French pronunciation is a thorny one. Nevertheless, despite this fact and the thanklessness of the task, the subject receives, in a variety of forms, some attention annually. Most of this attention is of the obligatory kind and is found in the opening chapter of almost every French grammar that appears. Such treatment, While necessarily concise and brief and generally well adapted to the purpose in view, of introducing the student to the subject, hardly ever goes beyond that goal. Besides the grammars, there are quite a few manuals, or treatises, on pronunciation that appear from time to time, and in their way are helpful to the serious student of the subject, no matter how objectionable he may consider many features in such works. Lastly there are the recent dictionaries, in most Of which the most cursory examination reveals an amount of attention given to the subject of pronuncia tion proportionate to the very considerable interest there in manifested of late years.

Download or read book Essentials Of French Pronunciation written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essentials Of French Pronunciation: And Introduction To Easy Reading This book has been prepared as an aid in teaching French pronunciation to first year pupils, and as an introduction to easy reading. The many difficulties in pronunciation which confront the beginner concurrently in a grammatical presentation of the French language, cannot be met satisfactorily by incidental teaching and should be dealt with in separate lessons. Although the exercises in Part I may be used as a drill in French pronunciation at any stage, the pupil should be familiarized, at the very beginning, with the essential sounds of the language, in order to acquire accuracy in the initial stages. The method outlined is based on the principle of associating the sound directly with the letter or combination of letters which represent it, rather than with an unfamiliar symbol. Phonetic transcriptions, so far as introduced, are intended to serve the purpose of diacritical marks, which, at a later stage, will be a guide to the pupil when consulting a phonetic dictionary. The reading lessons in Part II, which gradually introduce the Various tenses of the verb, may be taught to good advantage after the pupil has mastered the first ten lessons of the High School French Grammar. The reading of each extract should be preceded by a thorough drill on the tense illustrated. these lessons may also be utilized for memorization and oral practice.
