    About this ebook

    If you buy into the Pepé Le Pew stereotype of theFrench – arrogant, stuffy, overly amorous, andrather odiferous (Pepé Le Pew was a skunk. Talk aboutstereotypical!) – then think again. Not only arethe French people some of the most relaxed, pleasant people you'llever meet, but their society is one of the oldest, most culturallyrich societies in the world. So it's no surprise that French isknown as perhaps the most beautiful of all languages. Listen tosomeone speak French – sure, you don't have a cluewhat she's saying, but aren't you enraptured by the sound of it?

    Unfortunately, just because a language is beautiful doesn't meanthat it's easy to learn. Although French has many things in commonwith English, French has had many, many centuries to evolve intothe language it is today, which means it's had all that time tobecome more complex. That's where French For Dummies canhelp. Written in partnership with the language experts at Berlitz,this book can give you what you need for basic communication inFrench.

    French For Dummies covers the following topics andmore:

    • Basic pronunciation and gestures
    • The nuts and bolts of French grammar
    • Meeting and greeting in French
    • Situations in which you can use French: Making small talk,dining out, shopping, and talking on the phone
    • Traveling to France: Dealing with French currency, staying at ahotel, and getting around town
    • Top Ten lists on ways to pick up French quickly, things youshould never say in French, favorite French expressions, andimportant French holidays to remember.
    • Appendixes with verb conjugation tables, as well as a Frenchmini-dictionary

    French For Dummies also comes with a CD that has audiotranscriptions of all the exercises in the book, so that you canactually hear the French pronunciations.

    So whether you're taking a business trip and need to pick up alittle French quickly; you're cramming for your high school Frenchfinal; or you've always wanted to learn a new language but don'thave the time to drag yourself to a class once a week, FrenchFor Dummies can get you well on your way to becoming fluent inno time.
