Fluenz Mandarin 1+2

Fluenz French 1+2 offers an extremely comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of the language. Those who have already studied some French will benefit from the emphasis on those areas that have traditionally proven difficult for English speakers, such as the passé composé, noun genders, liaisons and contractions, word order, prepositions, and article agreement. The key to gaining confidence with any new language is a deep understanding of the foundational elements, and French 1+2 has been designed to build this confidence by focusing on these critical areas.

Useful for those who have studied French at some point
Many users who were already familiar with the vocabulary covered in Fluenz French 1+2 found the training on actually putting sentences together invaluable for allowing them to reach greater fluency with the language. The same was true for those users who had worked with programs that ban the use of English, since those can't address things like the intricacies of French liaisons, noun gender, article agreement, and the passé composé, nor can they offer much help with techniques for actually building full sentences and relevant questions.

 

A list of topics covered in the program:

  • Constructing sentences using past, present, and future tense verbs, including the passé composé
  • Issuing commands
  • Forming questions
  • Expressing location, including asking for and
    giving directions
  • Masculine and feminine constructions
  • Liaisons and contractions
  • Use of important articles and object pronouns
  • Demonstrative pronouns
