As a beginner student learning French one of the first phrases you’ll want to learn is how to say I miss you. Of all the sentences you can study this is one of the most useful for your new French Friends! To say I miss you you say: Tu me manques. Let’s break it down. Tu is you in the familiar form. Me is part of what’s called a reflexive verb in French and it really means to me. Manques means to miss. In our example sentence we learn, Tu sais quoi, mon ami – which means, you know my friend? Tu me manques beaucoup aujourd’hui. I miss you a lot today.
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.
