Welcome to A1 French part 4. You've built a solid foundation, and now you'll learn to use French in key everyday situations. By the end of this part, you'll be able to order food, go shopping, and talk about your health and basic needs with confidence.
Lesson#2
Let's start with one of the most useful verbs in French: 'vouloir', which means 'to want'. We'll learn how to say who wants something. To say 'I want' or 'you want', the forms sound the same but are spelled differently.
Lesson#3
To say 'I want', you use 'je veux'. To say 'you want' when talking to a friend or one person informally, you use 'tu veux'. Notice that 'veux' is pronounced the same in both cases.
Quiz#4
Translate into French: 'I want'.
Je veux
Quiz#5
How do you say 'you want' in French, when speaking to a friend?
Tu veux
Lesson#6
For 'he wants', 'she wants', or the general 'one wants', the forms are 'il veut', 'elle veut', and 'on veut'. Again, the verb form 'veut' sounds identical for all three.
