French Shortcut: Transfer your Knowledge from English and Speak Instant French!

By Irineu De Oliveira

Read this word out loud: situation. Same spelling in French. Same meaning. You did not learn it - you already had it.

After 1066, French poured into English for three hundred years. What is left is an enormous shared vocabulary hiding behind a few predictable endings: -ty becomes -t , -ly becomes -ment, -ous becomes -eux, and a long list of -tion words do not change at all.

French Shortcut is a conversion method. Learn the rule, claim the words, use them the same afternoon.

Inside this book:

Chapter-by-chapter conversion rules, from -tion to -euxWord Vaults holding around 9,000 recognisable French wordsA pronunciation gym in every chapter, built for the sounds English speakers get wrongTranslation drills and real sentences after every ruleFalse-friend alerts, so actuellement and assister never catch you outA topic vocabulary chapter: travel, food, work, family, numbers

Who it is for: beginners, travellers to France, adults restarting school French, and learners who want to read and speak before conjugating.

Put away the textbooks. Speak French the smart way.
