Hello guys. Welcome back to another tutorial. Hit the bell icon button so that you don't miss out any tutorial. Here's your first word in French. Bon. Bon. It means good. Here's your next word. C'est. C'est. It means it is. So how would you say in French, it is good? C'est bon. C'est bon. You'll start to notice some similarities between French and English words. Look at this word for example. Fantastique. Fantastique. It means fantastic. Fantastique. So how would you say this in French? It is fantastic. C'est fantastique. C'est fantastique. Here's another word that looks similar to English. Absolument. Absolument. It means absolutely. Absolument. So how would you say in French, it is absolutely fantastic? C'est absolument fantastique. C'est absolument fantastique. So far we've learnt bon, which means good. C'est, meaning it is. Fantastique, meaning fantastic. And absolument, meaning absolutely. Here's a cute little French word. Ici. Ici. It means here. Ici. So how would you say in French, it is here? C'est ici. C'est ici. Or how would you say, it is good here? C'est bon ici. C'est bon ici. Or how would you say, it is fantastic here? C'est fantastique ici. C'est fantastique ici. Or what about, it is absolutely fantastic here? C'est absolument fantastique ici. C'est absolument fantastique ici. Here's a word you might recognise if you've learnt any French before. Très. Très. It means very. Très. So how would you say in French, it is very good? So we've now had bon, which means good. C'est, meaning it is. Fantastique, which was fantastic. Absolument, absolutely. Ici, meaning here. And très, meaning very. So how would you say in French, it is very good here? Now you might be wondering what that little line is on top of the i in très. Well it's called an accent. Don't worry about it for the time being. We'll look at it in detail in a later lesson. Just remember to write it on the word très. So the word c'est meant it is. Well here's the opposite. Ce n'est pas. Ce n'est pas. It means it isn't. Ce n'est pas. So how do you say in French, it isn't here? Or it isn't good. It isn't very good. Or how do you say in French, it isn't fantastic? Or what about, it isn't very good here? You've learnt quite a few words and phrases in French now. And you've hopefully been saying them out loud, so that you can master the pronunciation. Now to really embed these words and phrases in your brain, let's do some translations. What do these sentences mean in French? It's good. It's absolutely fantastic here. It's good here. It is very good. It isn't good here. It isn't good. It's fantastic. It's fantastic. It's fantastic here. C'est fantastique ici. It isn't good here. It's absolutely fantastic. It's very good here. Now let's have a go at doing some reverse translations. I'll say some sentences in French, and see if you can work out what they mean in English. It isn't very good. It's very good. It isn't here. It's absolutely fantastic here. It isn't very good here. It's good. It's here. It isn't good here. It's good here. It isn't good. It's absolutely fantastic. Now let's recap the words we've learnt in this lesson. How do you say these words in French? It is... Bon. Here. Ici. Very. Très. It isn't. Ce n'est pas. Now there is plenty that you can do to ensure the language stays firmly in your brain and doesn't disappear. You can play about with building sentences from the words you've learnt so far. Whenever you find yourself with a spare 30 seconds, think of something you can say in French. Saying short sentences to yourself in French throughout the day keeps the language at the forefront of your mind. Also, from time to time, there will be a word or two, or maybe three, that just will not stay in your memory no matter how hard you try. What you should do to overcome this is write the word down in English Put the piece of paper in your pocket and take it out a few times each day. Whenever you take it out, look at the English word and say the French word to yourself along with a French sentence that contains this word. The first few times, you might struggle to think of what the French word is and you'll have to double-check. However, pretty quickly, you'll remember the French without having to check. You'll be amazed at how well this technique works. Finally, before I end this lesson, I'll just give you some information on what it means to learn a language. Memorising lots of words isn't what it means to learn a language. It's a start, but it isn't going to get you very far. What you need to be able to do is put those words together to get your thoughts and ideas across to somebody else. Each time you learn a new word, think to yourself, where could I use this? Make up a sentence and think about where you could say it. C'est très bon. You could say this to a waiter in a French restaurant when he asks you how your meal is. By doing this, you're giving the words relevance in your life. You'll remember things much more easily if you can see where it's going to be useful. Also, by building sentences, you're subconsciously creating a list of things to say so that you'll never be lost for words. Even when you're in France, you can do this. Before entering a restaurant, for example, have a quick think about what you could say to the waiter when you go inside. This helps to build your confidence and stops you from having to think on the spot. You'll be more likely to speak if you have already prepared something to say. Thank you for watching.
