Hard Words #9 The capital city of the lovely province of Normandy has caused grief to many an English speaker! Rouen was named as one of the hardest words in French by expats in the online news magazine The Local.Fr. In this video I teach why it has only one syllable and how to put that troublesome French r on the front of it. For an opportunity to take your French to a whole new level, check my website under “Courses” for information on my excellent video program.

This is the only video I have seen from her, and I'm going to sign up for her classes right away. The most helpful aspect, for me, is that she gives examples of the same sounds in English, which helps me figure out how my mouth and tongue should be positioned for the French syllable. I am honestly so stoked to watch more!
