What do you want?

Postby Nathalie on Thu Apr 17, 2008 12:03 am

Hi all,

how is your French learning coming along?
Are there any particular topics that you would like to learn about?
We want to give you even more Rocket French and therefore we would like to know: What do you want?
Here are some suggestions that we received in the past, so please feel free to add to the list:

-more about "directions"
-more lessons about "business"
-more lessons on "socializing and going out"

We would love to hear from you!

:D

it would be great to have some more lessons on how to chat to people in everyday situations, like with friends, going out for dinner, talking about sport. I have listened to some of them already and found them the most useful.

Socializing

Postby Ken B on Sat May 10, 2008 11:43 pm

I agree, it would be great to have more information about situations where people are socializing, such as at the club, bar, theatre, comedy club, cafe and other similar situations.

Hi there,

we are currently developing some more Rocket French material and there will also be a section on religion.
Here are the words that you requested:
God in French is "Dieu" and Jesus Christ is "Jesus Christ" (you don't pronounce the last "s" in Jesus, so it sounds like "Geezu")

Have fun learning French!

Bonjour!
A little laughter breaks the ice and makes it easier for me to strike up a conversation. With some of my French co-workers I am now able to make little jokes and witty one liners only they will catch on to, so even when it makes no sense….it’s still funny. :lol:
I would definitely like to learn more casual conversation, as in between friends, talking about their day or plans for the week or what they would like to do. Including describing & explaining things, teasing friends and making jokes. I would like to see some more idioms, similar to lesson 7.2 but based around Quebec or Canadian French. Perhaps some dialogue with a visitor from France?

I'm looking forward to new lessons!

Salut Nathalie,

I am new to the forum and am still trying to navigate my way around. I am working toward a permanent move to France with my current company and I would welcome some "business language" particularly related to Sales and Marketing.

Tres bientot, Andy :)
