Q1à¹
I have been watching you from my 6th grade and now I am in 8th grade! Ur channel has helped me so much with my grades and now I am scoring my best in French. Merci alex!
Teacher Alexa is so helpful and humorous at the same time. Thank you!
She may be, yet she is quite aged for making gestures like Lya of 'French with Lya'.... Lya is Lya the only Lya!
How are you?
I use your audiobooks, TH-cam videos to supplement my Duolingo app. You are such a great teacher and have clarified so much for me. Thank you for being so helpful for me.
You're such an amazing French teacher. You really helped me learning French! Merci beaucoup!
I think I have been using "plus" wrong for a long time 😂😂😂. Thanks for this video!! :)
Yes, I was using plus or de plus only to mean 'in addition' or moreover.
Teacher Alexa is the best french teacher.
You’re such a good teacher. Thank you!
You are absolutely brilliant! Your lessons are the best on TH-cam, I’m so glad I’ve stumbled on your channel! Thanks a lot! Your explanations are awesome
Thank you so much for this helpful video. I have lived in France for several years and today you just clear up my mind 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Merci , j’ai appris deux langues en même temps , c’est vraiment très satisfaisant pour moi surtout pour ma langue anglaise et j’ai fait attentivement écouter votre prononciation .

This reminds me of how the word “minute” can mean a unit of time or a very small amount depending on how it’s pronounced.

Bonjour Alexa
I'm watching Inhuman Resources on Netflix with Éric Cantona (haha I did not know he became an actor!) and I thought about this lesson I just watched a few days ago. The protagonist's wife says, according to the subtitles:
- J'habiterai plus ici. Je supporte plus.
She didn't even use any negation but since she did not pronounce "S" I understood she did not want to stay. But when it's written only, it can be confusing :)
Merci beaucoup.
Thank you Alexa. That was very helpful. Regards from Canada ❤❤
Aller a' la 'French with Lya' et ecrire moi douzaine comments a' la elle, sil vous plait.
(SHAKEEL)
Sorry, by 'ecrire' I mean 'voir', please.

Vous êtes absolument la meilleure enseignante de français surtout pour pratiquer le français standard contre mes habitudes louisianaises. J'aimerais pouvoir faire quelque chose pour que tu te sentes apprécié!
@@uff3f in Cajun French or Louisiana French, we blend it together or drop words altogether. In Creole French or Louisiana Creole, dropping words and sometimes blending them is the rule. I would assume in Standard French, a clear speaker would separate.
Merci de perpétuer notre langue aux USA malgré les siècles passés. :)
@@uff3f it’s both and depends where you are. There’s lots of administrative areas in France. In standard French they do not drop it. In regional French, in France, they may.
That’s super helpful! Thank you! Also, I think ,,Quand même’’ has way too much meanings as well 😂😂
Thanks so much! I want to ask, with the example of ‘Tu veux encore un croissant?’ can you replace encore in that sentence with ‘un autre’? Or will ‘encore’ mostly be used in cases like that?
Les deux se disent :) both are correct !
Merci alexa pour cett vedio
je t''aime beaucoup madam alexa ce lecons tres utile
So can you think of Personne as always being Somebody and the rest of the sentence determines whether it is “somebody” or “not somebody’ which is therefore nobody?
geniale!!
Merci bien ! Vous êtes vraiment la meilleure prof !
🌹🌹Bravo 🌹🌹🙏 Madam Alexa 👏
u r really a sweet teacher you look like my mother alexa ma'am I really want a heart from you plsssssssssssss love from India
I've been in France for 10 months and am finding learning the language super difficult!
Me too. I am from South Africa and have purchased a "petite maison" in the French countryside. Struggling with the language but slowly getting there !
Im in Québec and ready to give up
Alexa, you are amazing :)
its great to learn foreign language with you
most beautifully explained, but is the S used in a plus tard?
You don't pronounce it
Dans ce cas, il peut également être traduit par STILL. Avez-vous encore un croissant? Voulez-vous toujours un croissant? Do you still want a croissant?
Haha, it's so fascinating how similar this is to the German "noch" :)
Merci Alexa ! Mais, j'ai encore un petite problème - How do I ask someone to repeat what they just said? Is there a single word like _"Encore, s'il vous plait"_ that could be used? I doubt that is it since using that always gets people confused.
Alexa thank you for it all
Bonjour Alexa, great video ... but question on the use of 'de' and 'du' with 'plus' & 'encore', SVP.
why do you say 'Je veux plus DE cafe' but on other sidewe say 'Je veux encore DU cafe'.... thank you
DU (or DE LA) mean SOME in english
Je veux plus DE café = I want more coffee
Je veux encore DU cafe = I still want SOME coffee
Good
Nice 🥰🥰🥰vidio 🥰🥰🥰merci
Merci mon ensegnion
You better say 'mon Professeur' please.
In the context demonstrated, personne means "body." So there is either a (some random) body in the house, or there is no body in the house.
Iike that
Merci beaucoup, Mme.
What's the meaning of "en train de" in the sentence, please? Don't get how it works.
Je suis en train de manger = I’m in the middle/process of eating.
@@DMC888 Thousand thanks! :) So "Je suis en train de boire du lait" means "I'm drinking milk (right now)", right?
@@julianfernan8041 yep. Very useful in open restaurants when someone interrupts you to sell you roses, DVDs etc.
@@DMC888 Great! Merci beaucoup !
@@julianfernan8041 "être en train de" en frances es igual de "estar + gerundio" ^^
Very useful. I’d like 1 question. In case of “tu veux encore un croissant?”, can it be replaced “ tu veux un autre croissant?”.Thanks.
Yes absolutely. :) And "Tu veux un autre croissant" can be translated in the same way than in english "Tu veux un autre croissant ? Puisque celui-ci n'est pas bon." "Do you want another croissant ? As this on is not good ?"
Thanks
