Hello! I’m Megan, and this is my new French langblr. I’m learning French from scratch with some knowledge of Spanish and a little German under my belt. Most of my lessons are coming from FrenchPod101 right now, and I’m using this langblr to enhance my study time.
Here is where I am now, on my first real update. The following lists encompass 10 newbie lessons on FrenchPod101, so they are quite long for now, but since the words are pretty basic and I need a lot of material to start, it will work well this week.
I’m hoping to spend the next 7 days writing and reblogging material that aligns with my lesson for this week. Any words I research outside of this list will be featured as “new vocabulary” in my post. But as far as grammar goes, I’m going to do my best to stick with this particular set of guidelines.
