Learn French with Loquus
French can look familiar on the page and sound quite different aloud. Loquus gives you room to work with both. Listen to words, practice them in lessons, and use the reference tools to explore the grammar and expressions behind a conversation you want to have.
Start with a greeting. Keep going from there.
In French, a written ending may be silent, and neighboring words can sound connected. Listen to the available examples as complete phrases before repeating them. The Dictionary gives you a place to check a word, hear its audio, and compare the sound with its spelling.
When you meet a French noun, notice the article beside it and how nearby words change. Grammar Center can help explain gender, plurals, and agreement. Return to examples as you review so that you are working with useful combinations of words, not just isolated spellings.
French has different ways to address someone, including tu and vous. Look at the situation around an expression when you browse the Phrasebook. A greeting for a friend and a request to someone you have just met may call for different wording.

Open the app and today’s session is waiting. The French course begins with Sounds & First Contact, and the first lesson is Greetings & Introductions.
Your first word is bonjour, meaning hello. Each new word comes with its meaning and audio at normal or very slow speed.
Right after a new word, you repeat it after the voice. This is called shadowing, and it builds speaking habits from your very first lesson.
Grammar Center explains how French works, with topics like Être and Avoir: The Two Helper Verbs and Numbers and Ordinals.
