Grâce à
Thanks to this lesson, you'll know how to use the French expression grâce à.

-ier verbs
French verbs that end in -ier are conjugated according to the same rules as regular -er verbs, but there is a letter combination in certain conjugations that makes them seem strange.

Top French Gifts
It's officially the first day of Christmas shopping (in the US, at least), so here are my top gift picks for the French lovers on your list, whether they are kids; beginning, intermediate, or advanced students; translators; or teachers. Each list has an assortment of different kinds of resources, including dictionaries, grammar books, audio resources, software, movies, and interesting non-fiction.
