Learning French

August 8, 2008

I’ve been trying to learn French recently and, while I feel like my vocabulary is getting better, I still can’t understand French when spoken at a natural speed, even if the sentence is simple.  A friend recommended that I check out http://www.rfi.fr/lfen/statiques/accueil.asp which has a number of features for those trying to learn French. Best of all (to my mind) is “The news in simple French”. Accompanied by scripts, this is definitely what I need in order to get used to spoken French.
