Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

#

is this your first time learning a language?

ionic thorn
#

Yes

#

I will give a bit of a background
I speak fluent English and moderate Arabic

#

I know French language has its roots traced from latin and it also has a lot of shared vocabulary with English

# ionic thorn Any advice or tips you would like to give?

at least you know two, but in that case

  • learning a language takes tremendous amounts of time. Don't get discouraged if you can't understand people talking after a couple weeks of learning. Give yourself small scale objectives and goals, and take any amount of progress as a win
  • don't compare yourself to others
  • while translating is very useful in the beginning, French sentences fundamentally don't follow the same logic as English (or Arabic) and you should try to understand this logic and try to avoid translating everything literally if possible (you will in the beginning, totally normal)
  • use multiple resources! you can stick to a guide in the beginning, but you need grammar, vocabulary, phonetics, and ultimately read and listen to media
