Mastering the French G

When it comes to French pronunciation, the letter G can be a bit tricky. In French, the G sound can be pronounced in a few different ways, depending on the letter or letters that follow it. In this video, we’ll be focusing on the two most common ways to pronounce the letter G in French: the “hard” G sound and the “soft” G sound.

The “hard” G sound

The “hard” G sound is the one you’ll hear most often. It’s the sound you make when the letter G is followed by an A, O, or U. To make this sound, your vocal cords vibrate, and the sound comes from the back of your throat. 

The “soft” G sound

The “soft” G sound is the one you’ll hear when the letter G is followed by an E or an I. This sound is similar to the English “J” sound. To make this sound, your vocal cords do not vibrate, and the sound comes from the front of your mouth.

We recommend that you practice these sounds regularly and use them in context in order to improve your French Pronunciation. With the right techniques and practice, you can master the French G in no time. Don’t forget to check out the video and practice along with it.
