Top 5 mistakes by French learners [Français] 1- French accent (s) In those times where your first words written in French will probably pass by a keyboard, you may find it difficult to type the accents. Pleeeeease keep in mind this simple phrase: accents are not optional! They indicate a different pronunciation of the letter (specially the E). Pay attention to distinguish between ou (or) and où (where). The churchgoers will be attentive to pêcher/pècher (however pronounced identically): je vais aller pêcher means I’m going to catch some fish, while je vais aller pécher means I’m going to sin… Do you prefer get a task or a stain ? Quite seldom, you can meet dû : the past participle of devoir, and the only conjugated form to have an accent on it. Finally, in restaurant I would definitely recommand to order a plate of pâtes and some biscuits salés, instead of a full plate of pâté and some biscuits sales… You might enjoy it more! 2- Majuscules 3- Offensive animals Animal lovers, take care! 4- Genre des noms - cheveux / chevaux

This word is most commonly used in the context of “ça me fait chier,” which translates as a more vulgar version of “that pisses me off.” 4. You’ll most likely be directing this one at someone in particular, rather than as an angry expletive shouted in response to something. *salop (pronounced sal-OH) is the masculine version 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
