This is a little word, but it's one mistake almost every beginner makes.
It’s Merci.
→Merci (Mehr–see)
Most English speakers pronounce it exactly the way it’s written.
French doesn’t quite work like that.
Don’t rush it, just say it slowly.
Mer…ci.
There’s something that surprises a lot of people.
Imagine walking into a small shop and asking,
“How much is this?”
…without saying hello first.
In many French-speaking places, that can come across as a little rude.
The first thing people usually say is Bonjour.
Your first French word this week is one you’ll hear almost everywhere.
Bonjour (bohn–zhoor)
It means Hello or Good morning.
If you’re greeting one person, this is the safest word to use.

Bonjour, comment allez-vous ?
(Hello, how are you?)
