Synopsis

This book provides an easy-to-follow, detailed guide to French pronunciation and the rhythms of spoken French. In a concise and informative manner, the author maps out the essential differences between English and French pronunciation. The book introduces a revolutionary method for learning French, perfected over many years of practice. The author distills the complexities of French into thirty-six elemental sounds, which provide a firm foundation for working on the more advanced sounds that occur in the language. Tips are given on how to place your voice and utilize your lips and tongue to produce perfect French vowels, illustrated by diagrams that make everything clear and simple. The book provides you with the tools you need for natural pronunciation, and will help you transform your accent into authentic-sounding French. Following a review of the correct formation of consonants and consonant combinations, the book goes on to cover subtle yet important elements of pronunciation like nasal vowels, linking sounds, and the elision of certain consonants in certain circumstances. Unlike many other guides to French pronunciation, this book doesn't just focus on the practicalities of accurate pronunciation; it also delves into the theory behind its methods, providing a thorough understanding of how French sounds are constructed.
