"This one is a "must" for learning how the French REALLY talk!" William Martin, former political editor, The Oakland Tribune This unique method trains students to understand and speak French like natives, at real speed, with the vocabulary that is used in every regular conversation. We have observed that in conversations, less than 15% of the vocabulary is related to the theme only. The rest is common or very common vocabulary.

In the basic list we put all the words that appear systematically in every conversation. "Table", "crayon - pencil" or "avion - airplane" would be included in the primary vocabulary list but not in the basic vocabulary list where you will find words like,..
