Active Vocabulary Building

Growing Your French Word Power

Expanding your vocabulary is key to understanding and expressing yourself in French. Focus on learning words in context, using flashcards, and practicing regularly. Group words by theme (food, travel, emotions), and use new words in sentences or conversations to help them stick. Review often and challenge yourself to use your new vocabulary in writing and speaking tasks.

Examples

  • Making digital flashcards for common verbs and reviewing them daily.

  • Writing a diary entry using five new words each week.
