1. The pronunciation and intonation should be accurate and the spelling rules should be mastered.
When learning French, first of all, we will encounter the problems of how to pronounce and how to get the keys. Good pronunciation and intonation is like being able to write well, or dressing neatly, which gives a good impression. So, don't just be content with being difficult to understand, but make people feel happy and even surprised when talking to you. So you can't teach yourself at this stage, you must have a teacher to guide you. Because you can't always tell whether your pronunciation is accurate or not, you need the guidance of your teacher when you pronounce it, not to mention that some students will encounter difficulties in pronouncing [n] and [l] differently. Under the guidance of the teacher, master the pronunciation and intonation by listening to the tape.
Spelling rules are very important. Mastering these rules, you can pronounce even words you don't know. What's more, not every word in many French dictionaries is marked with an international phonetic symbol. To master spelling rules, it is natural to distinguish letter names from phonemes (vowels and consonants). For example, the letter E can be pronounced as [e] in different situations, even without pronunciation, and the letter Y can be pronounced as [igrεk], which should not be confused with phoneme [y]. Whether you are proficient in alphabetical order also determines the speed of looking up the dictionary in the future.
2. "Never leave your fist, never leave your mouth." When learning French, you must practice every day and repeatedly.
First, practice loudly. Some students are afraid of embarrassment. When they practice, their lips don't move much and their voices are very small. This learning method will make it possible for you to lose your pronunciation and intonation when you speak loudly. Practice loudly after class.
In addition, practice every day, even on weekends, and set aside an hour or two to practice. Don't touch it for a few days off, which is very taboo for beginners. Strengthening French teaching is usually faster. If you don't study and practice for a day, it may have a bad influence. If you don't keep up for a long time, you may lose confidence. Furthermore, practice repeatedly, because short passages can be recited, and common sentences should be blurted out. It takes hard work, there is no shortcut.
3. learn French by snowballing.
A good textbook should embody the principle of "snowballing", and there should be no connection between books in each lesson. Of course, teachers should also combine the language materials they have taught in each new lesson. Students should consciously combine what they have learned with what they have learned. In other words, try to apply what you have learned to new situations and repeat, expand and apply it with new grammar, vocabulary and rhetoric.
4. How to remember words?
Some students say they can't remember words. Is there any way?
First of all, the most stupid, but also the most effective way is to learn by rote, but also to write by heart. For example, irregular and commonly used verb inflections such as avoir and aitre should be remembered.
Of course, under the premise of rote learning, we should also find something regular. Learn more words and you will find many rules to follow. Here are a few examples:
1) Memorize words by attaching word formation:
The prefix re means "once again" and "once again", so commerce r-commerce r, dire-redire.
The prefix in-, im- means "none", "none" and "none", so it is possible-impossible, capacity é-in capacity é.
The suffix "-ir" used in verb construction means "change, change", so "grand"-"grand"; Rouge (red) -Rougir (red).
The suffix -able indicates the possibility of the end of adjectives: aimer-aimable;; Manger (edible)-manageable (edible);
2) Many adjectives can become adverbs by adding ingredients after they become negative:
Doux doux-douce-doucement (gently);
Nature-nature-nature (nature)
However, if the masculine adjective ends in a vowel letter, directly add:
Vrai-vraiment (true); Ré solution-Ré solution (resolute),
Of course, if the adjectives "Yin" and "Yang" are in the same form, they can also be added directly:
Fast-fast (fast)
3) Many nouns change from masculine to feminine regularly, such as:
-EUR-Euse un vender-Une vende use (salesman)
songstress
-teur-triceun institute ur-une institution (primary school teacher).
Electronic dictionary (reader)
Some students find nouns difficult to remember, but there are still some rules to follow.
1) uses the letter at the end of a noun to distinguish its yin and yang.
A) Nouns ending in consonants are mostly masculine; Most nouns ending in vowels A, I, O and U are also masculine: le lac (Lake), le salon (Living Room), le temps (Time), le pied (Foot), le parti (Party), le zéro (Zero), l'opéra (Opera) and le tissu (Cloth).
B) Nouns ending in -e and beginning with vowels or disyllabic letters are mostly feminine:
One year, rain, family, wheels
2) Semantically speaking, there are certain rules to follow, but people and animals are divided into yin and yang according to gender. Let me give you a few examples:
A) Most nouns belonging to tree names, seasons, months, weeks, weights and measures and metals are masculine:
Pine trees, apple trees, autumn
September (September), Carnival (Tuesday), Mediterranean Festival (meter)
Gram, iron, silver
B) The names of fruits and disciplines are mostly negative:
Apple, cherry, chemistry, grammar
3) Yin and Yang of nouns can also be distinguished by sound.
A) Generally speaking, nouns ending in vowels (note that they are not vowels) are mostly masculine:
Le repas [-a] (meal), le bureau [-o] (official position), le nom[-] (surname)
Le restaurant [-] (restaurant), le bijou [-u] (jewelry)
B) Nouns ending in consonants (non-consonants) are mostly feminine nouns:
La chaise [-z] (chair), la porte [-t] (door), la table [-l] (table),
(actress)
6. Words can also be classified and summarized by synonyms, antonyms, words of the same family or similar words:
1) synonym, synonym: vite = rapidity (fast)
Joli = beau (beautiful)
2) antonym: grand ≠petit (small)
Long) ≠ court (short)
3) cognates: diriger v.t (leader), Digigeant N. (leader), Directeur, Trice N. (manager)

Stepfather), belle-mère (mother-in-law; Stepmother), beau-fils, gendre (son-in-law), belle-fille, bru (daughter-in-law), Once (uncle, uncle, uncle), tante (aunt, uncle, aunt), cousin, E (cousin; Cousin)
7. Many people have studied English, which is a very favorable condition for memorizing French words.
(
There are many homographs and homographs in French and English, accounting for about 60% of the basic vocabulary. The number of homographs is not small, accounting for nearly 20% of the basic vocabulary, such as dialogue, simple, big, sports and so on.
Similar synonyms also have many rules to follow:
A) The first group of verbs in French is synonymous with English words, and the -r or -er at the end of the words is removed:

Changer change chanter (singing)
Forgive passers-by
B) Many nouns ending in é in French become y in English:

difficulty
In short, when learning French, you must work hard and recite, recite, read, recite, listen, speak and read a lot every day. We can read different versions of French textbooks and do more written exercises. When studying, you should think more, find more regular things, and pay attention to many special exceptions. We still can't cover everything, just give some examples for beginners' reference. You can explore some methods that suit you, and students can communicate more.
