    Episode 1 — The new president is 62 years old
    2026/07/23
    Day One French takes you from absolute zero to listening to news in simple French — including our A1 news podcast, LinguaWire A1 Daily French News — in four weeks. Twenty episodes, five minutes a day, with Louis and Claire. In episode one you learn the verb être (I am, he is, she is), the word le président, the official news formula for saying someone's age — and the first great French quirk: the silent letters French writes but refuses to say. By the end you'll understand and say a real French news sentence: Le nouveau président est âgé de soixante-deux ans. Your lesson sheet (full verb table, all pronouns, numbers 0–20) and the ten-minute interactive homework are at LinguaWire.com/DayOne — link below.

    Episode 19 — The prime minister in Washington
    2026/07/24

    Episode 9 — Prices are high and people have less money
    2026/07/24
    Episode nine of Day One French, with Louis and Claire. The story that never leaves the front page: the cost of living. Today: prices, money, more and less, expensive and its very French opposite, the verb coûter, and the delightful fact that l'argent, the French word for money, literally means silver. Today's sentence: Les prix sont élevés et les gens ont moins d'argent.▶ Practice this episode free, lesson sheet + 10-minute homework:https://linguawire.com/dayone/french/9🇫🇷 More free French lessons and daily A1 news:https://linguawire.com/frenchLearn French for beginners · A1 French podcast · real French news made simple.#LearnFrench #FrenchForBeginners #A1French #FrenchPodcast #LanguageLearning

    Episode 18 — The company is going to build a new factory and create 3,000 jobs
    2026/07/24
    Episode eighteen of Day One French, with Louis and Claire. Yesterday the past, today the future, and in French the future is just going: aller plus a verb in its dictionary form. Plus the business kit (the company, the factory, jobs, to build, to create) and the going-verb's double life: with a place it's motion, with a verb it's the future. Today's sentence: L'entreprise va construire une nouvelle usine et créer trois mille emplois.▶ Practice this episode free, lesson sheet + 10-minute homework:https://linguawire.com/dayone/french/18🇫🇷 More free French lessons and daily A1 news:https://linguawire.com/frenchLearn French for beginners · A1 French podcast · real French news made simple.#LearnFrench #FrenchForBeginners #A1French #FrenchPodcast #LanguageLearning

    Episode eight of Day One French, with Louis and Claire. Transport chaos is a news perennial, today you learn the trains, the station, the airport, open and closed, plus a name-check for the TGV. And the loveliest sound-trick in French: the liaison, when a silent letter suddenly wakes up to link two words. Today's sentence: Les trains sont pleins et l'aéroport est fermé.▶ Practice this episode free, lesson sheet + 10-minute homework:https://linguawire.com/dayone/french/8🇫🇷 More free French lessons and daily A1 news:https://linguawire.com/frenchLearn French for beginners · A1 French podcast · real French news made simple.#LearnFrench #FrenchForBeginners #A1French #FrenchPodcast #LanguageLearning
