To get started learning here, you have a few options.
People like to ask French-related questions in #salle-de-classe, #salle-de-classe-fr and #salle-de-classe-vulgaire.
Come chat with us in #français-débutant (for beginners), #français, #🌈anglais-français, or the voice channels! Immersion is key to language-learning.
The #archive-ressources channel may be helpful to you as well.
If you don’t find it appealing trying to learn French in a large community, you can find a penpal to learn with in #correspondances!
A Discord server offers options diverse enough that you can learn a lot just from hanging around, but it's always best to have other language sources, such as a textbook, Duolingo, Busuu, Anki, listening to music, podcasts, reading books and/or news etc. That way you can go from set phrases to more advanced language structures. No matter if you're a beginner, an experienced speaker or a native speaker, there's a place for you here! If you're confident, you can even help others in said channels.

I'm a bit overwhelmed by the amount of resources there is and what is recommended for a beginner and what isnt.
Do I just wanna use lawlessfrench exclusively?
before I check out anything else?
winter sable
In general, you should always diversify your sources of learning
LawlessFrench is excellent, but it’s not a one-stop shop.
azure ember
What are other sources I can use in addition?
And what exactly do I need to learn to become fluent / more proficient at french?
Like my original question, what is a language consisting of?
winter sable
Try and find stuff as you go about your day; look for French music, start watching French movies and series, go on YouTube and look up learner-orientated media (French Mornings with Elisa, EasyFrench, InnerFrench, Français Authentique)

Everything
azure ember
But isn't there like a rule of thumb, what there is that should be studied and such?
What is everything? What does everything consist of?

I think you're overthinking a bit
winter sable
First off, you have vocabulary. Vocabulary is like your bodily senses; they're names to sensations, objects, etcetera. Then you have grammar. Grammar is how it all ties together, sorta like your internal organs. Pronunciation is the whole thing together and how they manifest, think like how your mouth has a certain shape, your ears have a certain shape, your arms have a certain shape, etc
It's a lot to take in at once which is why it's recommended to start slow
azure ember
But that is all tho, correct? Grammar, vocabulary and when vocal, pronounciation?
Does lawlessfrench completly elaborate on how the french grammar works?
Like because I would assume grammar is something that isn't so time dependant and usually rather simple to understand?
winter sable
Completely, no, but it gets you to a good enough level for you to understand the basics
hence why I said you should diversify
azure ember
It's just where do I head after lawlessfrench to finish up on my grammar studies?

Grammar isn't simple to understand

If you want to be academic about it, you have loads of books but really the point is to diversify
Don't focus on one resource after another, take in multiple
azure ember
So what is another learning resources that is well recommended other than lawlessfrench?
So let's say I go through lawlessfrench as a introduction to french.
Afterwards I have stuff like:
before those two tho, I would need something for grammar tho. Is there no direct recommendations to learn french grammar?
And then after that, when completed, I would try to immersive more into french through media and other?
It's just that as of right now from given recommendations, after lawlessfrench I have no idea how I should progress and continue.
I am just trying to make a plan as to how I wanna study french. What resources I wanna fall back to? When I see a word I don't know, what website should I use? When I struggle w pronounciation of a specific word, where can I go? Which resources to avoid?
winter sable
So let's say I go through [lawlessfrench](https://www.lawlessfrench.com/products...
If you want to have a real structured thing, you'd have to sign up for lessons at an established institution
You seem to be looking for that
Whereas LawlessFrench is more of a place that you consult for something and not a place you're going to have structured lessons with
For words you don't know, you can look up WordReference, a bilingual dictionary
If you struggle with a pronunciation, you can look up Forvo
The thing about which resources to avoid is honestly level-dependent
For an intermediate and upwards learner, Duolingo is to be avoided since it's too gamified and doesn't provide too many explanations
For a beginner learner, though, Duolingo might be good to build up vocabulary and expressions
As for LawlessFrench, I will say that it is an excellent resource and a really well-rounded one since it has articles on pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, etc., but as I've said before, that's just one resource. Don't rely on one, get as many resources as you can
