Lesson outcome

I can use 'je vais' and 'il, elle va' with the preposition 'à' to say and understand where I and others go.

Show transcript
The sound symbol correspondence [ou] sounds like the 'ou' in 'nous', meaning 'we in French. The verb 'aller' means to go, going. 'Je vais' is 'I go, I am going', 'il,elle va' is 'he, she goes, is going'. The 's' in 'vais' is usually a SFC, but when it is followed by a vowel, it is pronounced like the English 'z'. To express 'to (the)...' we use 'au' or 'à la' depending on whether the noun which follows is masculine or feminine.
