This podcast began with authentic, unscripted and unrehearsed mp3s of French for students and teachers to use in the comprehension of the spoken and informal language. Over time I have added transcripts and video, and now I am beginning to add other languages. Swedish mp3s are also available (see below).

These resources are free to download and use for educational purposes. Many French transcripts and online listening exercises are also available at the French Listening Resources page.

My Say it in French phrasebook and Great French Short Stories dual-language book (both published by Dover Publications) are available at Amazon.com.

It has been updated with much more vocabulary, sample sentences, and cultural information, plus extended vocabulary lists, cross-referenced topics, and an alphabetical index.
