French Pronunciation Mastery
🎯 Key Tips

- • French R is uvular - made in the back of the throat
- • Silent final consonants except C, R, F, L (CaReFuL rule)
- • Vowels are pure - no English-style gliding
⚠️ Common Mistakes
- • Pronouncing silent letters at the end of words
- • Using English R instead of French uvular R
- • Not nasalizing nasal vowel sounds properly
- • Mixing up é (closed) and è (open) sounds
- • Forgetting liaison in fluid speech
