Non-native French speakers often make the following common mistakes:

1. Gender Errors – Confusing masculine and feminine nouns (e.g., le voiture instead of la voiture).


2. Wrong Verb Conjugation – Using incorrect verb forms, especially irregular verbs (e.g., je prend instead of je prends).


3. Incorrect Prepositions – Misusing prepositions (e.g., je vais à Paris vs. je vais en France).


4. Omitting Articles – French requires definite/indefinite articles more than English (e.g., J’aime chocolat instead of J’aime le chocolat).


5. False Friends (Faux Amis) – Words that look similar in English and French but have different meanings (e.g., attendre means to wait, not to attend).


6. Pronunciation Issues – Struggling with nasal sounds, silent letters, and liaison rules.


7. Using the Wrong Past Tense – Confusing passé composé and imparfait (e.g., il était tombé instead of il est tombé).


8. Overusing Direct Translations – Translating word-for-word from their native language, leading to unnatural phrases.


9. Neglecting Formality – Using tu instead of vous in formal situations.


10. Misplacing Adjectives – Some adjectives change meaning based on position (e.g., un grand homme means a great man, while un homme grand means a tall man).

French language is extremely precise. It may be used as a tool in philosophical argument, as well as be the core of a poetical composition. There is a subtle balance in French, and you may practically express every reasoning with clarity and elegance. It is mainly due to our use of “pronouns”, our various grammatical exceptions, tenses, the extensive use of “one’s” and our ability to generalize an example towards a concept.

As a consequence, it was a diplomatic language for many European countries - it enabled nobility ans scientists to discuss topics without the possibilities of misunderstanding. Mastering French let them be really precise about what they intended to say ; nevertheless, even a shady comment could be said so as to appear socially acceptable.

Certain letters in French words are silent primarily due to the evolution of the French language, where pronunciation has changed over time but spelling has not necessarily been updated to match

English has more words than French, though the exact number depends on how words are counted.

Yes, French does use contractions, and unlike in English, these contractions are mandatory, meaning they must be used in both spoken and written French
