French Futur and Conditionnel: How to tell the difference when spoken
I've always assumed they were pronounced the same way until I went searching for some pronunciation hints for another question and found this thread
http://www.languefrancaise.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3013
No one has ever explained it to me that way before, and a little light bulb went on inside my head when I read it. If I can remember, I will now pronounce the conditionnel je serais as if it ended in e grave (I can't type accents into this blog)
Anyone know what @ is called in French? I’ve heard ‘a commercial’ and ‘arabesque’
