your videos are the best on youtube.
merci!
True
I have been watching your videos for 2 years
same i just search french (what i want) Alexaa!!!!! but now she is at top she is #1 so i search french first 5 videos of her channel
Merci
the same here
I love your classes. They are short, making them easy to learn and uncomplicated. How can anyone dislike it? You explain just wonderfully, Alexa! Thanks.
ye
i am a new learner for french. i love the way u teach. thank you so much. you teach very well. god bless you.
GOD IS A LIE WE MADE THEM UP FOR MONEY!!!!!!!
zax al ghul Good on you mate, you're just like every edgy teen in my town.
Oui
william deng you said ‘we’, so are u involved in creating this lie?
Don't we all do? Or should I say... Whose nous tous faire?
This can also be visualised. Aigu has a rising "dash" so the flow of e sound goes up. With Grave the "dash" is falling so the sound drops.
great tip, it helped me to fully grasp the difference, thanks
AH THANK YOU!!
its a really good tip :) thanks
yes i got this tip from chinese accent
It helps
Didn't learn this during 5 years of studying French in high school and can now understand the difference from watching a 10 minute youtube video. Thank you.
Omg exact same here!! Can't believe they forgot to teach us such an important part of learning a language.
likely only because you already HAVE 5 yrs. of HS french under your belt!
Alexa, you're such a great french teacher, I love how natural you are at interacting with an audience that isn't there when you filmed these lessons! Merci beaucoup
1:02 "it has purpose, it means something" wow cant relate
The way it goes means something in french, é or è are not the same
i laughed so hard at this

I have been learning French for 2 and a half years and I've always struggled spelling French words because I keep putting the accents around the wrong way! I just couldn't memorize where they went; so this really helped me as I can now hear where the accents go. Thank you so much! The examples were very helpful!
I am living the same problems
Thank you so very very much Ms Alexa. I learned so much today. I took French in 1973 in college and I am amble to retain what I learned back than. You have turn me into a big fan. I will tell my friends about your lesson and encourage them to purchase your T-shirts. A bientot.
I do not know french. I am learning as I teach my baby granddaughter, thank you very much for all your lessons!!!🐝🍯🐝🐝🌽🍅🍐🍯🌾🐝🌸🐝
You are a real teacher, I learned a lot from you thanks ma’am
every person from 2020 : who learn this in quarantine
S
me
I don’t know why people say this in every video on UA-cam
I should go training
meeeee
I literally enjoy the lessons. Every free time is Alexa french time
Simply the best French teacher I have ever had.
Merci, Alexa. I just enrolled in a French class and la professeur teaches fast. Your videos will help me a lot so I can catch up :)
My friend in my French class told me about you and I'm so glad! You've made this SO simple and straightforward that I want to cry with joy and relief! I am naturally getting the French accent much more accurately just by reading the sentence you provided. Thank you SO MUCH! My passion for learning has increased and I'm already enthusiastic! You even taught me a word in my native English, 'ephemeral'! 😅
I'll be recommending you to everyone in my French class who doesn't know about you!
It's so different from Spanish and Portuguese! Thank you, waiting for the rest of the accents.
It's exactly the opposite for portuguese- Already forsee a hard time doing this
As a native English speaker from Ireland and Spanish speaker I must say I struggle most with the vowels in French! Thanks for your video collection, very useful!
I notice the video is a few years old so I wanted to drop in and say THANK YOU for keeping it up here! I am a homeschooling mom teaching French for the first time. Your videos are the most helpful ones I have found. Thank you for this great instruction!
You explained so clear! Your classes are really helpful. Kudos! Keep up the good work.
@7:36 she had me there 😂😂... Seriously can you?
You always have such great videos, but I feel the need to clarify something you didn't really touch on enough, in my opinion. When you're dealing with a grave accent ( ` ) and you're trying to read it when it's accenting 'a' or 'u', it's important to note that those don't ever change the sound of those letters. In fact, « ù » is only ever used in the word « où » to distinguish it from « ou » in writing. « À » is used a lot more frequently, but it's main purpose is to, again, differentiate between two words with the same sound in writing; in this case: « a » (third person conjugation of _to have_ ) vs. « à » (at or to).
The only part you really have to pay attention to is the fact that when « à » is at the end of a word, it signifies the enunciated syllable for the word.
Alexa you make it look easy. Merci!
It sounds the same to me 😭 I’m so frustrated
Omffg same
You have to look for the shape of the mouth while pronouncing, the acute accent is made when you stretch your mouth sideways, almost like smiling it sounds "wider", the grave accent requires you to just open your mouth like when you are in "aaw", it sounds "closeted", is very subtle but there is a difference
That’s how it was for me learning English, to my ears my accent was good but people didn’t understand me, I ended up writing everything to be understood.
the accent is the same and it is so frustrée
For me to make the é and è sounds i just look at the accent marking to know if my lower jaw goes in if "é" or out if "è"
Merci beaucoup! Je t'aime! I am so glad that I found you as I am studying French.
moi aussi. elle est très utile. :)
Bravo! Tu es intelligente personne.
Your lessons to teach French are effective and well prepared and organized
I`M REVEWING MY FRENCH , AND I REALLY LIKE YOUR PRACTICAL AND PROFOUND STYLE OF TEACHING , WHICH DEPENDS ON READING THE PSYCHOLOGY OF PEOPLE AND ANSWERING THEIR QUESTIONS , THEY WOULD HAVE ASKED YOU IF THEY WERE WITH YOU . THANKS A LOT
Alexa you are an amazing teacher . Thanks for the lessons and we love you
true
I really would like to understand how can anyone dislike it? Allexa explains just wonderfully! I love all her classes! Thanks, Allexa!
Accent aigu: Beyoncé.
XDXD
Alexa! You're a great a Teacher! Thank you for your lesson! : )
I love you 🌈☃️🍉😍🌹😂🍌🌺🌊🌊😛😘😍buy 😂👑
I didn't know "ephermere" even in english haha
I'm a French beginner. I have a test next week and i don't know nothing about French pronunciation. Thanks for supporting me with all these videos. I hope i can do the test well also🤗
Your way of teaching is so encouraging to a new learner. Thanks for your efforts.
Absolutely love your lessons!!!! Especially the in depth pronunciations of sounds.....Thank you so much for these, they really have helped me....
Hey, I have a small tip for you as a teacher, which I found very helpful when learning the difference between these two accents (aigu and grave). Use it, or not! Just wanted to tell you, as a student, who used to not understand the difference at all, until....
Grave: Starts on the top left, and dives down ''into the grave''... The reason I'm telling you is because it's natural to start on the left side, because us western folks read from left to right. And I noticed you said ''grave goes from the right, towards the left''.. Which is quite confusing, I think, and hard to remember.
So, if you start on the left (like we do when reading) the accent grave dives down into the grave, and then the aigu jumps up towards the right (and here one could add a rise in pitch, I guess, just to remember it better... :-) As in ''Aiguuuuu!!''
Graaaaaave........ Aaaiguuuuuuu! (easy :-)
Thanks again - pour les vidéos.
Takk skal du ha, hilsen fra Oslo.
Tack så mycket, mange tak, gracias .

Merci Alexa, communications major in college. Whenever I hear languages other than English I listen to where the stresses are and pronunciations. Another posted video was teaching grammar rules, I will look for yours, love your sense of humor!
Thank you! You makes these accent more understandable.
7:37 I was still struggling to read this and not listening to what she said but then I was shocked at first that she knows I'm not concentrating anymore.. I thought she can see me..
I know right sounded so serious too haha
You guys are wondersful...thank you for these videos very easy to follow and understand. Very sincere. Thanks again. Hope to learn french in no time.👍👍👍👍
Thank you for your incredible lessons.
I have been learning French but Alexa method is the best
OMG! Exactly the opposite of portuguese! My brain is exploding haha. Thanks Alexa, kisses from Brazil!
Guilherme Borges ikr
Not exactly the opposite. Almost that, but not at all.
É (Fr) = Ê (Pt)
È (Fr) = É (Pt)
Ê (Fr) = É (Pt)
Je suis du Brésil aussi! 🇧🇷
Exatamente kkkk
Yes, very clear indeed. And very interesting examples of the words with the accents. Merci beaucoup, ma professeur. Thanks for sharing or teaching us.

Love all your classes! You are a genius
Hello guys, I'm from Normandie, France, what I can say after watching a lot of those tutorial french accent vidéos( for some reasons) is: There are less views for this one but it's the best teacher, her french is perfect and her explanations are very right. just saying...Bonne journée ou soirée à vous tous amis anglophones!( have a good day, or night, to every of you english-speaking friends!)
after thinking about it, I said to myself, you're maybe french? teaching french, in fact....So my comment seem a little dumm...? BTW I used your voice when you say "Frrrrench accent" for a scratch dj session... hope you don't disagree with if so, sorry about it and will delete the work... just tell me
Thank you. Your explanations are easy to understand.
I just started to learn French today, and your lesson is so helpful. Thank you.

This vedio cleared my concepts about the accents. Thanks Alexa for making this wonderful vedio
This was very helpful. Thank you so much
These accents are really easy to learn if you know Chinese
why?
you dont need to know my name, its also easy if u know spanish
ļáļà ŕíìšãğêř or portuguese
My language most be easier than Chinese, all these accents are vowels in my language (Khmer). You might be easy to understand but it doesn't mean easy to make a sound!
Imperial Recker there are 5 types of tones in chinese. There are fantastically more more and more words the hell which pronouns similar, and you can only understand it, paying attention to this tones
Thanks so much! I needed this bad!
ure one of the best french teachers on the internet for sure
She is teaching better than my french teacher! Merci
