Show transcript
The SSC [tion] is pronounced as in 'attention'. It is an 's' sound, different to the 'sh' sound of 'tion' in English. The verb 'il fait' usually means 'he does, makes', but it is used with weather in French to mean 'it is'. To say 'do' with sports use 'faire' + 'de', e.g. 'je fais du sport' ('I do sport'). Remember to use 'faire' + 'un/une' with other nouns, e.g. 'je fais un gâteau' ('I am making a cake'). Remember, to say 'play' with sports use 'jouer' + 'à', e.g. 'je joue au tennis' ('I play tennis').
