These will allow you to pronounce correctly a huge majority of the French words you'll learn, including accents. There are a few exceptions and subtelties, some which you'll learn along the road and some that even native speakers struggle with. Of course, actually listening (and speaking) is the only way to actually learn pronunciation. | |
