In this lesson I’m going to teach you how to count to ten in French. For this lesson we’ll keep it simple and do 1-10 and in other beginners french vocabulary lessons we can count even higher! To say one you say Un.
To say two you say Deux. Notice the x is not pronounced and you just make an ugh sound. To say three you say Trois. The R is a bit tricky. You need to vibrate your tongue in the back of your throat. Four is Quatre. Again, watch R. Five is Cinq. Six is Six, just like English but watch that x at the end. Seven is Sept, pronounced Set. Eight is Huit, pronounced as it’s written but no strong English H. Nine is Neuf.
Ten is Dix. Again, watch the X.
