Just practice. When your at home, try to refer to things in French. I took 2陆 years of French in high school (ending about 19 years ago). I don't think I ever got higher than a B and I was never close to fluent. Even though I never use French, I am amazed at how much I remember today.I'm a beginner at french what are good ways for me not to forget what i've learned?
just go over it every night for a minimum of 15 minutes :) and if you want, listen to french songs or watch french cartoons, but sticking to 15 minutes a night of looking over what you've learned and practicing should do the trick (:
if you do want to listen to a good french song I recommend Aliz茅e, her best songs (in my opinion) are j'en ai marre and moi lolita, and nadiya et c'est parti and comme une rock are good to!!
hope I helped :D
There is no secret way of remembering. The best way is undoubtedly repetition. Review, review, review again. The gender of nouns, which has no rime nor reason, is easily learned by practising and repeating. Once you have said, or repeated, or written a hundred times ';un livre'; or ';le livre';, you'll rememember for sure that livre is masculine, and you won't wonder any longer why.
Get some French picture books from the public library, especially titles you are familiar with from your own childhood that have been translated.
Go to a cafe with a friend from your class (or an exchange student) and have a French ';date'; where you try to only use French. It will probably end up with more Franglais (a mix of English/ French) but you will have trying to think of ways to say things.
Alot of DVDs will have French subtitles that you can read as you listen to the movie in English (great way to enjoy a movie you've already seen a dozen times).
Check to see if the Alliance Francais has a chapter in your town. They offer social events relating to France and French culture at a very low cost to students.
Bonne chance! (good luck)
well all i do is write allot of it down and every so often go back and resite the words and there meanings, but if you dont wanna do that just listen in class and eventually it will stick in your brain, i have been doing french since i was in year 3 and now i in year 8 and it gets pretty anoying coz we always go threw the things i already no, but they just makig sure i remember it :)
sorry if this doesn't help
I'm starting my second foreign language- my tips are the following
1. make flash cards
2. read and write French any chance you can get-go to some French language chat rooms and groups on yahoo so you can practice.
3. watch and listen to French TV and Radio- if your in the US and no place near Canada I'd recommend getting a program like http://www.techmixer.com/tvu-player-23-o鈥?/a> or searching for a French channel on real player.
get a tutor talk oto him in french simply geta a french book resad it over a nd over like a study guide repeat the words and you will get it practice hard!!!!
like all skills to master.....repetition, repetition , repetition , and repetition
practice
call a friend from class and talk to them only in french
