- hello, my name is Henry Marie, are you ready
- to learn French Bonjour (Hello in French)
- my name is Marie and I'm a coach at
- Language Academia I specialize in Romance languages
- and accents here are 5 steps
- to get a general French accent for film and TV
- Hello in Multiple Languages we are Language Academia
- Bienvenue à Language Academia (Welcome to Language Academia in French) and please note
- that accents for film and TV and often generalized
- and simplified step 1
- dropping the H sound in French
- the H sound at the beginning of words
- is typically silent let's bring this pattern to English
- American happy becomes happy
- house would be house
- hello if we use it in a sentence
- hello my name is Henry hello my name is Henry
- step 2 U sounds
- in French the U sound
- is way more forward and more rounded than in American
- our actual U we would say U
- but as we are trying to imitate
- the U sound that's in blue
- for example we would use
- our ou combination which is a U
- instead of blue which is way lower
- we would say blue which is way more
- in the front of your mouth blue becomes
- blue bloom would become bloom
- the word rule rule
- and pool would be pool
- if we use it in sentence the moon will be blue tomorrow
- the moon will be blue tomorrow step 3
- change the v sound the French V
- is softer and smoother than the American V
- that contains a lot of vibrations so we have to
- bring fewer vibrations and lower your teeth
- a little bit more behind the bottom lip
- and don't make a very hard connection
- like when you say the sentence ça va (how are you in French)
- in French ça va
- it touches it it doesn't stay there vibrating
- now let's apply this to a couple of examples
- the word vase would become vase
- the word violin would become violin
- and the word vision would become vision
- if we use it in a sentence I saw a violin player with
- a clear vision of the future would become
- I saw a violin player with a clear vision of the future
- step 4 the R sound
- the French R sound is one of the toughest to
- get correctly and so I have a trick for that
- I tell people pretend you are going to spit
- and give me a ten and now you found the placement
- it's in the back of your throat it's glottal
- and then bring it down to a two it's r
- and depending on where in the word
- the R is it might even be lowered down to a R
- a one barely perceptible
- barely audible let's go with a couple examples
- red becomes red river becomes river
- and you can see how to second R is barely audible
- and the last example rose
- rose and if we are gonna use it
- in a full sentence Marie, are you ready to learn French?
- Marie, are you ready to learn French? step 5
- melody of the French language the French language
- has a very specific and distinctive melody a different rhythm
- the pitch rises and falls in different places than in the American language
- it has a little sing songy quality to it for example
- the weather today is very beautiful I think we should go for a walk
- the weather today is very beautiful I think we should go for a walk
- the weather here is very beautiful I think we should go for a walk
- it's way more contained I would love to get dinner at that restaurant
- It is one of my favorites I would love to get dinner at that restaurant
- It is one of my favorites I would love to get dinner at that restaurant
- It is one of my favorites final examples
- Rachel is going to Paris I had a vision of me playing the violin
- it was the perfect dream thank you for joining
