A speak-first phrasebook. Tap any phrase to hear it in a French voice, echo it back, repeat. That's the whole method.
The one rule that matters most
Always open with “Bonjour” before anything else — walking into a shop, asking a question, flagging a waiter. In France, skipping it reads as rude; leading with it makes almost anyone warm to you. If you learn one word, learn this one.
Tap ▶ to hear each phrase
Your device doesn't have a French voice installed, so audio is off — but every phrase still has a “say-it-like-this” guide below.
On a Mac you can add one in System Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content → System Voice → Manage Voices (look for French).
Three things that unlock the sound
The French “R” is a soft gargle, made in the back of the throat — not the American tongue-R. Don't stress it; a light throat-scrape is plenty. Merci ≈ “mair-see.”
Nasal sounds (on / an / un) hum through the nose — you don't fully land the “n.” Bonjour is “boñ-zhoor,” not “bon-jore.”
Final consonants usually go silent.Croissant = “krwah-sahñ,” C'est tout = “say too.” When in doubt, drop the last letter.
