How should i go about learning French ??

[silverspear]

so...any good books out there for a beginner ?

Ah, le français. C'est mon cours favori. Mais, si vous ne peux pas apprendre le français dans votre école, apprennez avec les livres.

(Ah, the French. It's my favoirate course. But, if you cannot learn the French in your school, learn with the books)

 

[silverspear]

ok Mr. parker - recommend some books then !

Don?t you think i will have trouble with pronunciation though.... hmmm maybe i should buy audio books or CDs too...

C?mon guys - i am sure some of you have tried learning French by themselves.

Too hard to learn French with books. Go take a class.

Is it not "si vous ne pouvez pas..." or "si tu ne peux pas..."?

Mon francais n'est pas si bon...

pick up some audio tapes
auditory > visual for learning languages

French in Action is still a good one.

After you've gone through that, go to Quebec or France for a few months 🙂 Shower and repeat. Euh, rinse and repeat ;P

unless you are super disciplined, you won't learn on your own, take a class.

The only way to really learn a language is to speak it. Label everything in your house, find a French forum, listen to CD?s you need total emersion.

Oh, baloney. I've see 2 year old kids speaking French so it can't be that hard. 😉

I've heard good things about Rosetta Stone, and I have a copy of it for Spanish, but I haven't begun to use it yet.

Time will tell.
