  40. Tips for accurate spoken French The sounds that occur on the previous pages are the ones which most frequently can cause problems, so if you can remember how each word sounds, you are a lot closer to having good French pronunciation! If not, type French words into Google Translate and it will tell you how to pronounce them! To sum up… There are several groupings of letters that all make the same sound… é, er, ez, ais, ait, ay, et, aient – they all sound like ay (as in May) The letter c with an accent underneath – ç – sounds like the letter s in English A c without this accent, and followed by the letters o,a or u, is a hard sound – café, code, vecu (vaykoo) A c followed by an i or an e is soft – cinq (sank), cent (son) an and en make make the same sound in French = ON - anglais, enfant in in a French word sounds like AN – intéressant, intelligent, enfin If a French word ends in t, d, s, n or x, these are usually SILENT But if the last letter is an e, you can pronounce the letter just before it – carte, anglaise, allemande In French, the letter e can cause lots of problems. At the end of a word, it isn’t sounded out. If it as an acute accent – é – then it sounds like ay. - café If it has a grace accent – è– then it sounds like eh – père The rest of the time, it sounds like uh – menu (muhnoo)

  41. Tips for accurate spoken French Silent letters Like English, French is not a phonetic language. A phonetic language is one in which each letter has a single corresponding sound; in other words, spelling matches pronunciation. Languages like French and English have letters that can be pronounced in different ways or sometimes not at all.  The basic rule of French pronunciation is that the final consonant is not pronounced, but there are many exceptions... The letters B, C, F, K, L, Q, and R are usually pronounced at the end of a word. Tip: Since B, K, and Q are rare as final consonants, some people find it helpful to use the word CaReFuL to remember the most common of the usually pronounced final The letters D,G,M,N,P,S,T,X,Z are usually silent at the end of a word, but with some exceptions if they are proper names or words borrowed from other languages
