This online-and-book program emphasizes speaking, sound discrimination, and standard intonation patterns that are typical of native French speakers, for example pronunciation of French vowel sounds, such as u and eu , and French nasals such as un and en , which many English speakers find especially difficult to pronounce. This program's noteworthy features include: A guide to French pronunciation expressed in the phonetic symbols of the International Phonetic Association (IPA) Extensive pronunciation exercises including supplementary help based on poetry, proverbs, familiar sayings, historical quotations and humor Online audio Words and sounds are put into a variety of conversational contexts for students of French to practice and perfect. Review: The Title Speaks For Itself...Pronunciation Is Extremely Important To Speak French Properly, So Buy This Book! - For those Francophones/Francophiles (or even those vacationing for a short periods of time) who love the French Language, this book is genuinely the best Lesson Book I have found for taking serious lovers of the language to the next level! Personally, I have not found a French language lesson book that has helped me to improve my ability to speak as well as this book has since I purchased it. Of course, it still takes practicing daily, following the clear, concise lessons along with listening to the way the individuals on the CD's help you to understand the exact pronunciation and structure. It has helped where no other Lesson Book has been able to help. Most who love to speak the language - or have tried to learn it - have had French lessons either from school, or are self-taught through immersion or others have been learning and applying the language by means of other courses/books over the years. All with agree that the REAL challenge has always been PROPER pronunciation of French words and phrases. Of course, lessons and books help with phonetic characters; however, if you are like me, they do not always help when you are trying to speak them, they can often be misread or misunderstood. The phonetics simply do not teach proper pronunciation. Therefore, once a person learns the true pronunciation of words - rid ourselves of some phrases and sentence structuring that are not used in reality, the rest is easier to follow! For French, as with other languages, there is also the factor of dialect that comes into play. At times, dialect throws off understanding the language-even in Paris, there is a certain style of modern French (not necessarily slang) spoken around the Arrondissements that lesson books will not help you to understand. But, this book takes ANY level of understanding of the language and helps you to leap forward in your ability to communicate. This , of course, is own personal opinion. Many people may not have trouble with proper pronunciation of French. However, I have found exactly what I have been searching for in all the other lessons that matches what is being spoken when we are in France. Yes, they have helped me along the way to speak the language with ability; but, I have always needed help ascertaining certain distinctive pronunciation of accents - the accent grave, the letters or combinations of letters that have sounds not within the typical English language, etc. I have received exactly what was needed to fill in those gaps of information! So, I highly recommend this book, it is valuable and I have definitely leapt forward in my linguistic skills remarkably where my understanding is exciting and I love, literally LOVE playing with the words and rolling the letters and difficult accents around my mouth, back of my throat, my tongue, etc....Yes, highly recommended to everyone! (Did I say that I can READ French even better than I did before? No? Well, add that to this review as well! It's VERY important to read the language properly with the proper pronunciations in your head!) Review: Excellent - Recognizing finally that my ability to pronounce French correctly and unlikely to improve much, I figured I'd always have to communicate with the French by writing everything out. My French speaking is still pretty much at that level, but this book is helping. After years of trying different methods to pronounce things better, I stumbled on this book and, while it is only helping me a little (the fault is mine mainly), it is helping. The lessons are somewhat boring (all right excessively boring) so I don't recommend trying hours of it at one go. Also for me the use of the book only works if you can constantly reverse the cd so that you can re-hear the sounds. As with most french pronunciation guides, which tell you where to put your tongue, how to spread or contract your lips, and whether to generally grimace (or not) this book does the same things. For me none of this works. I just can't do it. Which might help explain my bad pronunciation. However, as I write above, I find this book very good and helpful. It is clear and well organized. My difficulty with it is that I try to use it when riding the treadmill at the gym. It really is difficult to listen to the lesson on the IPhone, try to back up the dialog frequently, and balance the book on the machine. In fact, it doesn't really work all that well. If anyone has a method for balancing a book with ability to change pages while running of walking on treadmill let me know. This book requires frequent page changes and the treadmill makes the whole process difficult. Somehow I don't actually blame the book for this deficiency. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,240,026 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #317 in French Language Instruction (Books) #74,944 in Education & Teaching (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 180 Reviews | ## Images ![Pronounce it Perfectly in French: With Online Audio (Barron's Foreign Language Guides) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ea+BXmSqL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Title Speaks For Itself...Pronunciation Is Extremely Important To Speak French Properly, So Buy This Book! *by T***R on December 27, 2015* For those Francophones/Francophiles (or even those vacationing for a short periods of time) who love the French Language, this book is genuinely the best Lesson Book I have found for taking serious lovers of the language to the next level!

I took the workbook to class to get help with a couple words and my teacher told me it was an excellent resource. Did not give five stars because I wish there was more work on minimal pairs. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/3769314-pronounce-it-perfectly-in-french-with-online-audio-barrons-foreign](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/3769314-pronounce-it-perfectly-in-french-with-online-audio-barrons-foreign) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
