In fact i love this woman, you're a blessing to those of us who are very much interested in learning french, may God bless you and protect you for me
did you learn it??
I came to know Alexa while preparing for TEF Canada. It’s been more than 20years since I studied French in my university. I love every single your lesson. Thanks a lot!!
I'm Brazilian, I speak english, spanish and portuguese, now I'm learning French because next year I'll go to Paris and bordeaux to work, it's amazing language, thx teacher I love your classes ! like we say in Brazil Muito obrigado ! Merci
thank you for all the videos Alexa, I really enjoyed learning French with you. merci beaucoup
Merci Alexa! j'aime apprendre la langue du francais parce que tu le fais amusement. Tu as une bonne journee.
Thanks Alexa! You are a very gentle and great teacher!!! I hope you continue making your great videos!!
Bravo ! De loin les cours de Français les plus professionnels que j'ai trouvés sur TH-cam.
*Magasin* could be one of them.
It reminds me of the word "magazine" but actually means "store"
That's what magazine meant in English too, but particularly pertaining to ammunition.
And the french language influence on Russian made it the word for store in russian too
You're right that there are a lot of false friends between French and English. One that comes to my mind quickly is 'placard' for 'wardrobe'. Protests would be extremely difficult if we all carried french 'placards' :) Thank you for this video Alexa.
Wow sooo helpful! Thanks! Très très très utile pour mes études en français. Merci Alexa!
It's quite simple and straight to the point hence easy understanding
Gracias Alexa...Por enseñarnos Francés...
Preservatif= Condom
French has a faux amis as well, e.g. "Le foot" is short for " football" but they might as well have called it "Le pied".
J'aime bien vos cours en ligne et j'en profite énormément.
Thanks Alexa.

Hi Alexa,
vous avez oublié de mentionner quelques autres faux amis: Priest = CURE and Comment = How. (Please tell me if the sentence I have written is correct or wrong?)
I knew a few of these only thanks
i remember from a french school book a malentendu
"il faut desarmer!"
le homme militaire"oui, il faut des armees!"
Amazon video thank you so much ❤
This kind of thing is so helpful thank you Alexa!

Très très utile leçon.

"Just pause the video, DO something here" ;;___;; thanks for shaming me into participating Alexa! (just to be clear i mean this in a joking positive way)
Bonjour Allexa, merci. ..❤
Very nice
Beutyful explainations i love it 🌹
chevre, capricorne, brebis, belier, monnaie=span.moneda=russ.valuta
equipage=crew equpaje (espanol)=bagage
Merci beaucoup c'est claire
merci beaucoup madame.
Merci beaucoup 💖💖
merci professeur
Hello.....You have given a word "Assister" , which means to attend, likewise we have another word "Attendre", which seems like "to attend" but the actual meaning is "to wait"
another faux amis between french and hindi the word : Ravi.
in Hindi it means , the Sun but i guess in French it means happy to meet you..
great
"Allure" peut aussi signifier "démarche" comme dans "Il a une drôle d'allure".
merci très bien
For the word 'agenda' - do you mean 'calendar'?
No it means diary.
But don't you mark dates in your calendar? I mean, notebook is something of a broader meaning.
I would have said 'on your calendar'
I wouldn't go with calendar as the translation
merci beaucoup vous êtes très gentil je d'or la vidéo !!!!! *****
I love Alexa !
j ai trouve quelque chose dans mon livre des mots
minerai vs plaquette mineralogique
au lieu, on peut dire plaque d'immatriculation
taxi vs taxidermiste (mais un mot dont on n'a pas besoin chaque jour)
panne vs panneau
muer =developper deu. mausern mais maus deu.=souris
In Bangali we say "d'accord" as "to look at" & "mal" is like "goods" but not the opposite of "bien"..
Speaking of assister and attend how about attender not meaning attend but rather to wait like in Spanish too
c'est tres tres bien
c'est parfait!
Can you please explain the difference between your paid lessons on your website and these on TH-cam videos? This is my third time attempting to learn and advance my French. Your videos have filled a lot of gaps and made learning interesting. This is the 5th language for me, in my experience at a certain stage if not from the beginning, I need to get rid of the translation and just listen and speak all in that new language. Do your classes offer that?
bonjour, the difference between my course and these lessons is that every lesson are grouped and categorised by level from beginners to advanced. They all come with support guides. I also post new exclusive videos all the time and you get to learn Live with me every week and I have a podcast! :)
is "faire de la lecture" more like 'to do the reading"? What's the difference between "lecture" and "lire"?
5:14 assistir portugais=ecouter/regarder francais
I immediately understand what "bras" means, because in Tagalog, it's called "braso" (I know how to speak Tagalog🇵🇭)
bravoooo
I must said that" you are the best.
merci alexa dear✌👌
merci alexa
Great video
s/b commence instead of commerce?

Oh Lord, why do the French people write what they don’t read or speak. Are there words in French at all which are read or pronounced as written!?
Yes, a lot, even if french is overloaded with too many superfluous letters (mutes, doubled) and strange digrams or trigrams.
For exemple the word "fil" is pronounced /fil/, but it's an exception :p
great
