French A1 opens the door to a language spoken across five continents. At this CEFR level, you learn essential phrases for greetings, introductions, and basic interactions. French pronunciation requires attention to nasal vowels and liaison, but the reward is one of the world's most elegant languages.

Study tips

Always learn French nouns with their article (le/la/un/une) — gender is unpredictable and must be memorized. Use the audio extensively; French has many silent letters and liaison rules that only become natural through listening.

Grammar focus

Noun gender and articles (le/la/les), present tense of regular -er/-ir/-re verbs, avoir and être, negation (ne...pas), basic adjective placement and agreement.
