Introduction:

Becoming fluent in French generally means that you will have the confidence to speak, read, write and comprehend the French language in normal circumstances and also be capable of using French easily and accurately. Becoming fluent in French will require a lot of memorization as well as following different techniques. Fluency depends on different things. They are: 

• the person learning the language will be able to communicate their thoughts in the French language easily without having too much to think.
• The learner will be able to think in their target language all the time.
• The learner will be able to use the French language to define unknown words.
• The native French users will understand the learners without any issues.

• Set up your specific goals

When you have decided to learn French, then you must have some goals planned in your mind. For example, you may learn French for professional purposes or for visiting France or for reading French books and so on. You need to know and set up your specific goals before starting to learn any language including French. You should know why you want to be fluent in French. This helps you to stay motivated throughout your learning journey. 

• Communicate with Native speakers and language partners

Communicating with native French speakers and French language partners is very much essential to become fluent in French. Communicating with Native French speakers helps you to get corrected when you are making mistakes, it helps you to understand their pronunciation and tone of speaking. This is one of the most ideal ways to practice your speaking skills. You can find native speakers from online communities and many of them are really very helpful. You can also communicate with French language partners who are learning the language. If they are one level higher than you then they can guide you in case of any mistakes or issues. 

• Give stress on learning French with audio

Learning French with audio is a very effective way of getting fluent in less time. The stuff that we hear repeatedly gets stored in our memory very easily. To be able to speak French French fluently you need to listen to French songs and audios and repeat them aloud. This will improve your pronunciation as well as your listening skills. The best way to master the French language is to practice the process of listening, understanding, and then speaking. Watch French movies or tv shows and try to memorize what you have heard.

• Having a good stock of vocabulary along with knowing their application is a must!

Having a good stock of words along with knowing their application is a must for all those who want to become fluent in the French language. Learn at least 5 new words daily along with revising the old ones. Keep a notebook and a dictionary handy. Note down any unknown words and find their meaning along with their application. If you don’t know where to use the word then it is useless to memorize the word. Following this method will help you to increase your French fluency.

• Learn French in sentences and according to a situation or context

Learning French in sentences and according to context helps you to increase your fluency level. This method will help you to speak and write fast instead of thinking for a longer time. Think of several situations and practice talking to yourself about that situation. This is an effective method to become fluent in French. 

• Readout loud 

Reading out loud helps you to improve your pronunciation and lessens your mistakes. And reading out loud also helps you to remember things for a much longer time. And hence it works like a miracle for gaining fluency. 

• Always try to be surrounded by the French language

Speak French, Think French, Eat French, Sleep French, Dream French, do everything in French to master the language. You have to be surrounded by the French language always. If you follow this you will acquire fluency in the French language in no time.

• Study French for a short time regularly, and not all at a time

Make a habit of studying in fragments but do it daily. If you try to mug up everything at once, chances are that you’ll exhaust yourself, and get frustrated. Spend at least half an hour daily learning French attentively. Rest of the day you can practice thinking, speaking in French, listening to French podcasts, videos and so on. 

• Practice regularly and rigorously! 

Regular and rigorous practice will lead you to increase your fluency in the French language. Repetition and revision is the key to learning a language. I always prefer to learn less and practice more, as this helps you to remember more and learn effectively and helps you to master your fluency.
