Want to learn the basics in French? The 18 audios in the album are devised for beginner learners of French and include a series of short conversations in which you will hear people greeting each other, asking how to get somewhere, asking who someone is, buying things, ordering breakfast in a café and talking about what they eat for breakfast, booking a hotel room, and using numbers and letters. There is also a track to help with pronunciation. This material forms part of The Open University course L192 Bon départ: beginners' French.

Customer Reviews
Need to add a full download option
It's cumbersome to get episodes separately, as well as to download transcripts separately. Need to add a "full series" single download button. Thanks.
Really helpful
This is really good reinforcement and hearing this stuff over and over is sure to help your vocabulary
how can i download the transcripts?
i have a problem downloading the transcript. whenever i click it i get to a safari page saying 'access denied'.
how can i fix this?!
