Le Français: Départ-Arrivée
Available To Downloads

The newly revised Le Français: Départ–Arrivée, Fourth Edition, is a complete introductory and early intermediate program that teaches the basic structures and vocabulary of French language and culture, including colloquial French expressions and gestures. Derived from the internationally recognized Dartmouth College language program, whose approach has been reworked and adapted into a comprehensive text, this updated edition is further enhanced by new photos. The adventures of three American students living with French families are described in three levels through “scenarios” or dialogues: the first tells the story in simple terms; the second adds more vocabulary and grammar; the third represents the kind of normal, flowing prose one encounters in reading. The scenarios invite dramatic action and a variety of applications. The lessons are rounded out with a wide range of challenging, student-oriented exercises that help learners apply the core materials to new contexts and their own lives.The Fourth Edition is designed to give both instructor and student maximum flexibility in completing a thoroughly tested approach to learning French in either a traditional or accelerated course, both for new students of French and as a review for early-intermediate-level students. This new edition is meant to facilitate a contextualized, communicative approach to the study of the French language. It has been class-tested for raising students to an intermediate-high level of oral proficiency in a traditional or accelerated course, or to the advanced level in an immersion environment. To expand possibilities in communicative and cultural competency, the instructor can select from a variety of new presentations and activities while maintaining the integrity of each lesson.The Fourth Edition will continue to serve traditional and accelerated language programs both in two- and four-year colleges and universities, and in two-year high school language programs. It can easily be adapted to either the semester or the quarter system and will be complemented by workbook and audio materials.Le Français - Instructor’s Manual and Audioscript is available to teachers.

This is the text book I used in college way back when.....I am relearning French with Rosetta Stone but got to a place where I really wanted my text book again to better understand verb tenses. For historical reference I learned French via the Rassias method for two years (and nothing in high school) then finished a math degree and then went to France for my last year of school. This intense approach allowed me to successfully finish off my last year.

I really like the book; however, I would like to check the answers. Is there an answer key? I would like to purchase one.

The book is good beginning level for French 1.I ordered a used book and the book was in decent condition, but it was not the most recent edition.I would recommend anyone purchasing this text book for a class to be sure that it is the correct edition.

Exactly as described. Good seller

By today's standards, this is a TERRIBLE book for learning French. Once upon a time, it might have been considered good. Many texts are pushed by profs who are friends with the author and thousands of students pay the price.
