French is supposaly the hardest language to learn as your 2nd language. if its your main one then it usally comes to people easier but otherwise its said to be hard. But if you really commit your self and really want to learn it then you nv no. it could be easy for u

Well french is my first language so I can’t really comment on how hard it is to learn…

But I think depending on your first language it’ll be easier or harder… ( natural conjugation, and how everything is genderized, etc…) Like it took me 3 years to learn english, but I learnt german in about 6 months…

But if your interested and really work at it, it shouldn’t be that hard. Also I find that if you emmerse yourself into something its easier!

Bon chance! =]

If you seriously put your mind to it it will be easier.

I had to take french every year since kindergarten. I have no intrest in it- thus making it harder for me to learn it.

On the other hand, I love the german language, and it’s a lot easier for me because I’m seriously putting my mind to it..

Hun if you’re interested in it, I’d say go for it! :)

Good luck!!

As a second language, Its been hard so far! So many accents, two GENDERS for words, there are a million verbs you learn, some with the same kinda rules, and the “imperfect ones”, its all confusing. lol

french is my first language… so I know like every thing… it’s actually very hard sometimes, but it’s very worth it, you should deffinatly try learning french.

j’espere que ca aider… (I hope this helped)

From my experience it’s very hard, but then I’m really bad at languages. You might find it easier.

I had wanted to learn French for a long time then I just called Pimsleur on 877-566-2629 and they were great in recommending me a course that suited my needs.

I’ve taken local classes, used Rosetta Stone, and purchased Smart French audio CDS. Yes…I am an old dog and its very hard for me to learn new tricks. Pimsleur was effective because of the reviews that occur throughout the audio set. You just don’t memorize it one time and then never hear it again.

The next session builds on the previous session with a some “new material” and by the end you’ve built a “small” but effective vocabulary. I also learned specific language rules that were omitted or assumed common knowledge in my French class. I

understand that other users may want a written book or guide. However, I’ve found that with French, it is better NOT to know how the word is spelled because it doesn’t sound anything like the way it’s spelled. It’s definitely better to learn the correct pronounciation FIRST. I highly recommend this audio series. It was much more effective than the Smart French Audio CDs.

It’s great that you can absorb a new language effortlessly without any reading, writing or computer use. I put them onto my iPod and listen while I am driving and jogging. So many other courses require you to sit at a study desk. Definitely not for me.

If you want to learn French do what I did and call toll free 877-566-2629.

You will be fluent in French before you know it.
