    One other comment. I love the silly examples that make me practice the vowel sound over and over. And, I love that as silly as these are that you are still telling me what the words mean whether they are about women from Brittain or mud from a hole being on my neck. Merci beaucoup pour vos efforts à nous apprendre!

    I truly love this course. Where other courses do a great job at vocabulary or basics around conversational French, this is the first I've seen spend a healthy amount of time around the pronunciation of French. I love the IPA reference as learning that should make the pronunciation (or reference to such easier). I would ask, esp. on the vowels, for you to provide an examples sheet with the IPA reference since there are SO many vowel combinations (nasal and non-nasal) to remember. Merci!
