  This book aims to tell readers how to speak and listen to French. It begins by outlining the basic principles of French phonetics, and points out regional differences. It goes on to discuss specifics - vowels, consonants and semi-consonants - and uses this as a basis for covering more complex parts of speech. There are further chapters covering such aspects as rhythmic groups, syllable liaison, and intonation.
