If you learned French in a classroom setting or even from language learning apps, chances are you’ve mostly learned technical, written French - which is almost a completely different language than the one we use in everyday conversations!
Spoken French can be difficult to speak and understand, no matter how long you’ve been studying and practicing. But by learning certain things, you can make an almost instant boost to your French fluency.
One of these things is filler words. Once you know how to identify French filler words, you’ll start to hear them everywhere - and with today’s lesson, you can even start to use them yourself!
Have you been tripped up by any of these filler words in the past? Let me know in the comments!
Take care and stay safe.
😘 from Grenoble, France.

  • I think that thanks to Emmanuel Macron the expression 'en même temps' joined this list 😆. Btw, in my times the most popular was 'dis donc'. Greetings to you and thank you for yet another great lesson.

  • Merci Géraldine. Votre leçon est bien compris, mais franchement, le dialogue à la fin du télévision ou d’un film a semblé trop vite de comprendre. Il me faudrait plusieurs mois en France pour tous comprendre. Enfin, c’est pas grave, parce que je vis aux États-Unis, et j’ai pas de problème en anglais. 🤓

  • Oh, FYI, either way you pronounce "versatile" is correct. Some words have two acceptable pronunciations like INsurance and inSURance.

  • One word I've seen a lot in subtitles, but you can barely identify it when it's spoken, is "ben" which seems to be inserted at the beginning of sentences. Don't know if it even means anything like "euh" and "hein"

  • Wow ,I so agree with your teaching. As a native English speaker (American ), teaching French with English is the best, as one does not miss anything. My French professor agrees. Your English is next to perfect. I've only noticed two words.... vocabulary... and... adjective...I've noticed other native French speakers stumble on these two words. You are super, thank you for everything, I can just tell you are a wonderful person. Please keep up the great ideas on your videos. Thanks again

  • You are a good French teacher. I wish you did "comprehensive input" based on the work by Dr Steven Krashen. I think your technique ultimately tries to get the student to "memorize" words or phrases, but this is ultimately a failing methodology. People learn foreign languages the same way they learned their mother tongue, by listening to A LOT of comprehensible input FIRST. The more one comprehends, then speaking just comes naturally and effortless. Memorizing grammatical rules or special pronunciations doesn't work because they are too easily forgotten. Comprehending a well crafted and interesting story allows the listener to fully understand the words and phrases in a natural way, and thus locking them into the consciousness.

    • It is correct grammatically, but many people omit the “ne” in everyday spoken French. In French as in English, and probably all languages, perfectly correct grammar is not always followed.
