French for Communication I

The native tongue of Coco Chanel, Jacques Cousteau, and Voltaire, French is sophisticated, melodious, and popular. More than 200 million people speak French on five continents, and French is the second most taught language in the world after English. It is also the international language of fashion, cooking, and theatre. A great starting point to learn the other Romance languages, French develops critical thinking skills by exposing you to a new conceptual and linguistic framework. The course provides an introduction to French pronunciation and intonation and the basics of French grammar (the present tense, gender and the rules of agreement). Learn to describe yourself and others and engage in simple conversations. Textbook preliminary chapter and chapters 1-2.
