How to learn French by yourself? Start with an easy and free online course!

We have adopted an objective and efficient approach to learn how to speak a language easily and quickly: we suggest you to start by memorizing words, phrases and practical expressions that you can use in everyday life and that will be useful when traveling.
Getting used to pronounce words out loud, numbers for instance, is an easy exercise that you can practice often and at anytime throughout the day.
It will help you to get used to the sounds of your chosen language and thus make it more familiar.
And once your vacation begins, in France, Canada, Switzerland or in one of the many African countries where it is used, you will be surprised how familiar and easy to understand it will seem.
Furthermore, using a pocket dictionary is always useful, particularly during a trip. It enables you to find the translation of new words and enrich your vocabulary.

A language of the world 

French is one of the most widely spoken languages ​​in the world with about 275 million speakers, 77 million of whom are native speakers. Indeed, apart consolidating relations with France - the fifth largest economy in the world and the second largest in Europe - this language opens the doors of countries on all continents since it is the official language in 29 countries and currently spoken in 8 other countries. Moreover, specialists project that in 2050 8% of the world's population will be francophone! 
As one of the official and working language of the United Nations and the European Union, this language also plays an important role in diplomacy and international affairs.

A stunning culture 

For centuries it was the language of several European monarchies, thus the language of culture and communication between different countries and kingdoms. This influence was remarkable in the philosophical, literary and sociological currents for several centuries. Actually, France itself has 15 Literature Nobel Prize winners, making it the country with the highest number of laureates in this category. 

Make a success of your stay in France, Belgium, Quebec, Switzerland or in an French-speaking country

Whether you are going to spend a few days with friends for a leisure trip or if you are on a business trip, nothing will be more useful to you than to be able to slip a few words in the language of your interlocutors, who will appreciate your effort and will be certainly more willing to help.

How to succeed in having good pronunciation within a week to a month?

Mastering this language is also a matter of correctly reproducing phonemes and intonation (the « melody »). Here are some instructions to introduce you to the pronunciation of the 20 to 21 consonants and 11 to 16 vowels of the French 
The H: this letter is not pronounced, however, in some cases it can prevent the link (the French « liaison ») between words. 
In general, C, D, G, P, R, S, T, X and Z are not pronounced, except in the case of « liaison ». AU: pronounced / o / in open syllables and / ɔ / in some cases as in "Paul".
Other rules, especially those about the pronunciation of vowels, should be learned as you immerse yourself in the language. One tool that can help you is Pronunciator. As for intonation, one of the essential rules is that the accent of a word or phrase always bears on the last syllable or last word. To mark this difference, the penultimate syllable is weaker than the antepenultimate. 
Another feature of French phonetics is that the link (« liaison ») between words is mandatory, except in some exceptions.
We invite you to listen to the pronunciation of the letters by clicking on the following link: French alphabet with audio.

Sarika Mutha  :  As an Indian it was a hard thing for me to learn french. But loecsen made it easy for me by its audio. Thank you
Jana :  s'il vous plait = please excusez-moi = excuse me You guys messed up on 'Excuse me!', I think. I don't speak French but that's what I learned. Loecsen : no, you can use both. Non, vous pouvez utiliser les deux. Il est très fréquent d'avoir plusieurs traductions pour une expression. Comme "Hi" ou "Hello" = "Salut" in French.
