Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Pronunciation of French There is surely no need to convince intelligent American teachers of the deplorable lack of ability to pronounce the French language in our school and college classes. But, when the defects of an old method have become apparent, and a scientific but practical system stands ready to take its place, it is certainly time to expect a change for the better. According to the old plan of teaching pronunciation, the student first learned what the French sounds are "like in English," and with these half-truths in mind was sent floundering through chance selections of the text nearest at hand; system, scientific analysis, and prepared exercises were completely lacking. The new method, though scientific, can be made eminently practical, and need never be technical. It aims to present a rational explanation of the phenomena of phonetics ("the science of articulate sound"), rules for the proper production of the sounds of the language, and graded exercises to train the vocal organs. Surely it would seem wiser to spend the early months of one's work in the language learning these things and repeating carefully prepared exercises, than in blundering through pages of unpronounceable French.

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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer of French Pronunciation With this new edition the Primer of French Pronunciation appears in an entirely new form. Eight years ago, when I prepared the first edition, no phonetic alphabet presented especial claims for adoption, and believing that no distinction ought to be made between the practical and the scientific study of the language in this regard, I selected the alphabet with which students of the history of French are familiar the world over. Since then, however, the Michaelis-Passy Dictionary has been published and the alphabet of the Association Phonetique has been used in such practical books as the Fraser and Squair French Grammar and the recent International French-English Dictionary, so that the choice is really no longer an open one. If we are to succeed in the difficult task of teaching an intelligent pronunciation of the language, we must work in unison. The alphabet of the Association Phonetique is open to criticism, but so are other alphabets as well, and, whatever their final value may be, it certainly is poor method to introduce the discussion into the Freshman class or the High School.

This book was released on 2017-05-28 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Introduction to French This introductory book to French is intended for the first and second years in High Schools and for the first year in Colleges. It is meant above all to be a practical book. The author does not call it a grammar, for he believes that a grammar should be comprehensive and used as a book of reference. The teacher of French of to-day aims at putting his stu dents into vital touch with the living language in good French texts as soon as possible. With these he enlarges the pupils' vocabulary and on them he bases his exercises in dictation, reproduction and composition. Consequently, the introductory book should present the essentials of French pronunciation and grammar as briefly as is consistent with clearness' and accuracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from French Speech and Spelling: A First Guide to French Pronunciation A number of exercises have been added for purposes of revision and to stimulate the pupils to apply their knowledge. In recent years much progress has been made in the application of phonetics to modern language teaching, and there are now many classes in which the pupils acquire the foreign pronunciation by the aid of the symbols of the Association Phonétique Internationale. These were first used in England in 1898, in Dent's First French Book; at the present day they are to be found in almost every French course, and also in books for the teaching of English, German, Spanish, and Latin. The number of teachers who rely on imitation only is decreasing, and the results obtained are steadily becoming more satisfactory. It is with the conviction that Mr Richards' little book will be found a real help to this end that I recommend it to the notice of teachers.

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.
