Hear Dorothée pronounce the French alphabet and then analyse the sounds of the vowels and consonants clearly and concisely, giving several examples of many different French sounds.

Discover how the sounds can change depending on a letter's position within a word, and the various combinations with other letters.

It uses the software engine of the 200 Words a Day! accelerated language learning program, allowing you to go from screen to screen seeing the various letters and combinations of letters being spoken by a French native speaker.

You can practise along with Dorothée, as she walks you through all the various sounds.

Native English speakers often have difficulty mastering some of the sounds that are peculiar to French pronunciation. It is difficult sometimes for such people to distinguish, and master the difference in sounds like the French word lu (past participle of read), and the 'ou' sound like in loup, which is French for wolf.

The 'u' sound in lu is not replicated in English, and is more like the retort that Paris Hilton makes when she does not like something or someone. "Eeeeuuw." I really don't think you can spell it, but it is American teenage speak for 'yuk'.

The 'u' sound loup is more like 'loo'.
