Four girls, one room

Review week two and introduce someone else.

Evening. All four sit on the floor with crisps. Simone translates when someone gets stuck. Marina says three sentences in a row for the first time.

1. Listen and repeat

Listen first. Reveal the translation if you need it. Repeat the phrase slowly twice.

Voici Ana.

Translation

This is Ana.

Elle est brésilienne.

Translation

She's Brazilian.

Margaux est de Lyon.

Translation

Margaux is from Lyon.

On est quatre !

Translation

There are four of us!

Reading, sound by sound

Liaison: a silent final letter comes back to life before a vowel. les amis sounds like lay-zami, deux ans like duh-zan. And le, la, je lose their vowel before a vowel: l'hôtel, j'aime.
