"Allo Oui!"

Speaking and understanding a foreign language, as all teachers and learners know, is much more difficult than reading; and speaking and understanding on the telephone is the most difficult of all, because there is no body language, no facial expressions, no moving lips to help. This program teaches the user to make business sense in French telephone conversation; it is divided into basic vocabulary, spelling names in French, saying French phone numbers, how and where to find French phones, the system of French telephone numbers, and talking on the phone. (35 minutes)
