French is relatively easy to learn but it does take some time and effort. As French is closely related to English, I have to agree with the Foreign Language Institute that says that French belongs to the easiest group of languages to learn for English speakers. Having so much common vocabulary helps a lot!

The French are very particular about being correct in speaking their own language (probably due to a lifetime of dictees and being corrected for their own sloppy articulation). So they are rather reluctant to speak English or other languages where they may stumble. If they can speak some, they will.

French is also, of course, an extremely useful language to learn. Below are some practical reasons for studying French. While ‘only’ about 80 million people speak French as a first language, it is one of the world’s most widely spoken second languages with perhaps 200 million L2 speakers.

Linguists say that French is much easier to grasp than German. It is due to the complexity of German grammar, but German and English have the same Germanic roots making it easier for English speakers to learn German. The grammar of the French language is significantly harder than German grammar.

It won’t be easy, but learning French in six months is possible if you’re motivated, diligent and realistic about your goals. Walk with me and no matter where you are in six months, you’ll be there with some amazing French skills.

Duolingo is good to get the flavor of the French language, the basics of French grammar, and about 2,000–3,000 words of vocabulary. It must be complemented with other resources because you won’t speak easily, polish your accent, produce your own sentences and understand conversations without them.

The scope of duolingo is very limited. I think it’s well established that most courses get you to somewhere around A2, B1 at best, which is just enough to be a bit challenging, but not enough to make you able to expand your knowledge on your own.

Duolingo is very safe and there is no need to worry. The Dulingo bird is not real and cannot make you beg for your life in Spanish. The email thing is most likely just so they are able to send you messages to remind you to continue your lessons.

With full immersion in the French language, you can expect to be relatively fluent in three to six months. Of course, full French immersion can be tough to accomplish, considering the fact that you probably have a full-time life somewhere where French isn’t the language being spoken!
