Great.... i have already filled almost one hundred pages with notes from your classes.... you are such an awesome teacher.... merci....... a thousand times merci....
Bob's your oyster hahaha. That genuinely cracked me up. Anyway Alexa, thanks so much for putting the time and effort into these videos. I'm the typical case of the lazy roast beef who never paid attention to French at school, but thanks to your videos I've learnt more in the past couple of days than I did in 6 years at school! Merci beaucoup :)
bravo alexa, tu as su identifier le probleme du rapport de la conjugaison franco-anglaise et tu a su bien canaliser en mettant en rapport lequivalence des temps anglo francais ainsi fais il deviendra facile au aprenants de bien saisir lessentiel
Bonjour Alexa. Pour moi il m'est impossible d'apprendre l'Anglais grâce à vos cours car je ne suis pas assez avancée pour suivre,(normal , c'est adressé aux Anglophones voulant apprendre le Français) . C'est bien ce que je disais, il faut que vous fassiez aussi l'inverse, je suis sûre que ce serait réussi . (Clin d’œil!)
Après plusieurs tentatives pas très fructueuses pour apprendre l'anglais, je viens de découvrir votre méthode pour l'apprentissage du français aux Anglais . Avez vous pensé à faire l'inverse , ce serait génial et bien utile pour les français comme moi qui se sont cassé le nez avec des méthodes moins vivantes, et en plus on passe un bon moment avec vous !. Merci de bien vouloir me répondre ou si vous connaissez un site comme le votre merci aussi de me le communiquer .
Jake S Je voulais = I wanted (imperfect tense). Something that occurred in the past & continued for some time before stopping. E.g. When I was little, I wanted a dog. Quand j'étais petit, je voulais un chien. J'ai voulu = I wanted (passé composé or present perfect tense). A short lived event in the past. For example: I wanted chocolate ice cream, not vanilla. J'ai voulu de la crème glacée au chocolat, pas de la vanille.
Abby Christine À la / au / aux = 'to the' or 'at the'. "À la" is used before feminine nouns. "Au", before masculine nouns. "Aux", before plural nouns. E.g. I wanted to go TO THE shops this morning, but I overslept. J'ai voulu aller AUX magasins ce matin, mais j'ai trop dormi. I saw you AT THE park when I was going TO THE library. Je vous ai vu AU parc quand j'allais À LA bibliothèque.
Katarina Mamula In English the word 'surprise' can be a noun: 'a surprise', or a verb 'to surprise'. But, in French it is only a noun. So, for 'I wanted to surprise you', you would have to either say "I wanted to make you a surprise" or use a different verb "J'ai voulu te surprendre".
Chulani Lakshika Imparfait = Imperfect, as in the Imperfect Tense. Used when the action of the verb took place in the past, and continued for some time before stopping. When I was young, I wanted to be an astronaut. Quand j'étais jeune, je voulais être astronaute. The past tense is used when the action of the verb took place in the past, and was over quickly. When I was young, I broke my arm. Quand j'étais jeune, je me suis cassé le bras.
J'ai toujours voulu voir la Tour Eiffel. (I have always wanted to see the Eiffel Tower.) Quand as-tu voulu venir me rendre visite? (When did you want to come and visit me?) Mon grand-père n'a voulu pas que tu partes. (My grandfather did not want you to leave.) Mes parents et moi avons longtemps voulu aller en Allemagne. (My parents and I have long wanted to go to Germany.) Est-ce que vous avez voulu ça pour longtemps? (Have you wanted this for long?) Les étudiants n'ont pas voulu retourner à l'école depuis le départ de leur professeur préféré. (The students have not wanted to go back to school since their favourite teacher left.)
J'ai voulu aller au parque avec mon chien aujourd'hui. If only you could hear our pronunciation of le verbe vouloir. Mais si nous répétons après toi nous avons dit bien.
Hi may I make a constructive criticism: Many people are watching on slow internet speeds so they have to watch in 140p. It is difficult to read small text in this setting so perhaps you should try to keep your text bigger? Just a thought. Love your videos otherwise. Thanks so much
Jacob Piccinino I think it is grammatically correct. But "toi" is used when emphasising the "you", rather than the "surprise". So the sense of the sentence would be changed to wanting to surprise YOU, as opposed to someone else; rather than wanting to SURPRISE you, as opposed to not surprising you.
phoenix olivia Je voulais = "I wanted" in the imperfect tense. J'ai voulu = "I wanted" in the past (or present perfect) tense. The imperfect tense is used for something that happened in the past and continued for a while before it stopped. E.g. When I was a child I WANTED to be a fireman. Quand j'étais enfant JE VOULAIS être un pompier. The past tense (i.e. the passé composé or present perfect) is used for something that happened in the past as a single event. I WANTED chicken for dinner. J'ai voulu du poulet pour le dîner. For this particular verb, the imperfect tense is more frequently used than the past tense because, unlike "I heard" or "I saw", one usually "wanted" something over a period of time.
They only bad thing about your lessons is that you keep saying the word "hard" believe me that makes it hard and surely not helps. Otherwise, I like your lessons Alexa a big salute from Iraq
Gabriel X Well, if she said it was easy she'd be lying, and it would make those of us who found it hard feel stupid. Vouloir is irregular and therefore relatively difficult to conjugate.
Well, it's not necessary to say that it's easy! Learning depend on psychology so you know the word "Hard" makes it even harder. It's my opinion and I respect yours.
malcolm z Non. "Tu" can only be the subject pronoun (I.e. the person doing the action of the verb). In that sentence, the subject pronoun is "I" and the "you" is the object pronoun (I.e. the person receiving the action of the verb). In French, "te" is the object pronoun. Also, in English, "surprise" can be a noun or a verb. But, in French, it is a noun only. So, in French, I cannot surprise you, instead I have to "make you" a surprise.

+Alexa Polidoro when do you use the voulais forms in the past tense? this has been bothering me for a while now.
Great video btw
Jake S
Je voulais = I wanted (imperfect tense).
Something that occurred in the past & continued for some time before stopping.
E.g.
When I was little, I wanted a dog.
Quand j'étais petit, je voulais un chien.
J'ai voulu = I wanted (passé composé or present perfect tense).
A short lived event in the past.
For example:
I wanted chocolate ice cream, not vanilla.
J'ai voulu de la crème glacée au chocolat, pas de la vanille.
Bonjour Alexa heheh i like what you been said its magic haha
excellent
do you have a video on when to use au, aux, a la, etc?
Abbey Ploeg Right! This is a difficult grammar point for me but I think Alexa could explain it so I could understand.
Abby Christine
À la / au / aux = 'to the' or 'at the'.
"À la" is used before feminine nouns.
"Au", before masculine nouns.
"Aux", before plural nouns.
E.g.
I wanted to go TO THE shops this morning, but I overslept.
J'ai voulu aller AUX magasins ce matin, mais j'ai trop dormi.
I saw you AT THE park when I was going TO THE library.
Je vous ai vu AU parc quand j'allais À LA bibliothèque.

Wouldn't you just say "J'ai volou te un suprise?" Because "J'ai volou te faire une suprise, means I wanted to make you suprise"
Katarina Mamula
In English the word 'surprise' can be a noun: 'a surprise', or a verb 'to surprise'. But, in French it is only a noun.
So, for 'I wanted to surprise you', you would have to either say "I wanted to make you a surprise" or use a different verb "J'ai voulu te surprendre".
What’s the difference between j’ai voulu and j’ai vu ?
what is IMPARFAIT ?what that meaning?
Chulani Lakshika
Imparfait = Imperfect, as in the Imperfect Tense.
Used when the action of the verb took place in the past, and continued for some time before stopping.
When I was young, I wanted to be an astronaut.
Quand j'étais jeune, je voulais être astronaute.
The past tense is used when the action of the verb took place in the past, and was over quickly.
When I was young, I broke my arm.
Quand j'étais jeune, je me suis cassé le bras.

darn! j'ai voulu savoir de la vie d'Alexa!!
Ah, Bob's my oyster.
Your videos are amazing! However, can you also say: J'ai voulu faire une surprise pour toi? Or is it incorrect? Merci beaucoup
Jacob Piccinino
I think it is grammatically correct. But "toi" is used when emphasising the "you", rather than the "surprise".
So the sense of the sentence would be changed to wanting to surprise YOU, as opposed to someone else; rather than wanting to SURPRISE you, as opposed to not surprising you.

J'ai voulu = "I wanted" in the past tense.

You're so cute. 😍
j'ai voulu a suprise tu,would that mean the same as j'ai voulu te faire une surprise?
malcolm z
Non.
"Tu" can only be the subject pronoun (I.e. the person doing the action of the verb).
In that sentence, the subject pronoun is "I" and the "you" is the object pronoun (I.e. the person receiving the action of the verb).
In French, "te" is the object pronoun.
Also, in English, "surprise" can be a noun or a verb. But, in French, it is a noun only.
So, in French, I cannot surprise you, instead I have to "make you" a surprise.
