Hello and welcome here ! I'm mikasa, I'm here because I want to teach French to all the
people from anywhere. I like teaching French because in my opinion French language is pretty
interesting to learn. And I think it's always good to discover a new language. So before
the lesson start, I should introduce myself. So my name is mikasa but in fact it's more
a nickname than a name because obviously my name is not really Mikasa. Maybe you guessed
it that, I'm French native speaker, so some times I make any mistakes, I apologize because
I'm speaking in English, which is not my native language, so I live in France and I like to
learn and teach languages, I'm learning Chinese and Japanese, and in the future, I would like
to be a professional teacher. Now, to speak about the channel, I will upload
videos each week, and each videos will give you something different to learn. Also, I
created a facebook page, which can help me to support you, because sometimes I may forget
to tell something on a video, so I will use my facebook page, and it will be easier for
me, but also for you. About the lessons, don't worry, I will do my best to make it easy to
understand and I will help you little by little for each lessons. Usually, the lessons will
be like this, first, I teach you some things, second, I tell you some particularities which
you need to know, third, I use all of this on a real situation, and fourth, I repeat
the most important things which you need to remember. So, I think we can begin, the first
lessons will include some basic sentences and basic knowledge, so you might already
know everything but I need to start here for everyone. Our first lesson is the pronunciation
of the French alphabet, in this case, the English and the French alphabet is the same
but a lot of letters don't have the same pronunciation, so I will give you the right pronunciation
for each letters. Let's begin ! So, the first ten letters in English are A,B,C,D,E, F,G,H,I,J.
And now, in French it's A,B,C,D,E, F,G,H,I,J. The next ten letters in English are K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T.
And now in French, it's K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T. And the last letters in English are U,V,W,X,Y,Z.
And now in French it's U,V,W,X,Y,Z. And now for the second part of the lesson,
I will give you some basic words and sentences to begin a conversation. The first words are
very basic, so it's " Bonjour " , which means Good morning, Good afternoon or Hello. " Bonsoir
" which means Good evening. And " Salut " which means Hi, or Bye Bye. So, it's " Bonjour ", " Bonsoir
" and " Salut ". Next, we have three different sentences which mean the same thing. " Comment
allez-vous ?", "Comment vas-tu ?", "Comment ça va ?" It means "How are you ?" but the
only difference is how polite it is. "Comment allez-vous?" is the most polite. "Comment
vas-tu?" is less polite. And "Comment ça va ?" is the least polite. And to answer this
question, we can use two different sentences. "Je vais bien." Which means " I'm ok"," I'm
fine". "Je ne vais pas bien." Which means " I'm not ok". And in this case of "I'm not
ok", you can add "Je suis malade." If you are sick, because it just means "I'm sick".
To finish, you can introduce yourself, to tell your name, you have to say "Je m'appelle..."
and after "Je m'appelle", you have to add your name. For example "Je m'appelle Mikasa"
it means "My name is Mikasa". After this, you can say what you do in your life, for
example Student, Worker, or something else. You just have to say "Je suis...". For example
if you are a student, you just say "Je suis étudiant." Which means "I'm a student". And
if you want other examples, ask me on Facebook or Youtube because there are too much examples
to do. And the last thing to say is where you are living, so we will talk about countries
instead of cities. So, to tell "I live in France" you have to say "Je vis en France".
It's very simple. But something you have to be careful is after "Je vis" there is a little
word which change, and it depends of which country you are talking about. There is two
possible words, it's "en" and "au". I will write some examples for you using "en" and
"au". So I think that's it for today. This lesson was a special one, so I will not make
a real situation but maybe in the next lesson, I will. Also, I will repeat a last time all
the words. So : "Bonjour", "Bonsoir", "Salut", "Comment allez-vous?", "Comment vas-tu?",
"Comment ça va?", "Je vais bien", "Je ne vais pas bien", "Je suis malade", "Je m'appelle...",
"Je suis...", "Je vis...". I hope you enjoyed this first lesson. So, you can like me on
Facebook, it will be easier to help you. And also you can subscribe here. Oh and don't
forget to give me your feedbacks, it will help me for sure. So, that's it. Thanks, Good
luck and Bye Bye !
