The Sounds F and V
Salut! Today you're learning two sounds that are easy to recognize — but French spells them in more ways than you might expect.
Video below
Le son F — like the "f" in "fun"
f → fou, chef, neuf / ff → affreux / ph → phare, photo
Le son V — like the "v" in "very"
v → vivre, voiture, voyage, livre, neveu
The main surprise here is ph — borrowed from Greek, it always makes an F sound in French.
And watch out for neuf and chef — that final f is pronounced, which isn't always the case with French consonants!
Can you give me couple word using today's sounds? Write them in the comments below!
