Learn about French A2 Topics
CORE Languages follows the CEFR standard for teaching foreign languages. That means we are required to teach specific topics in each level. In order to make learning more manageable, we have broken each level down into 4 short courses.
GEFR Level: French A2.1
- Level 2-1 is an intermediate conversation class. We take a break from learning new material to focus on practicing the topics covered in level A1 through different conversational exercises.
- Level 2-2 focuses on the future tense and using the imperative. Much emphasis is placed on speaking and working out the nuances of expressing oneself in French.
After completing these levels, you’ll be able to:
understand and use familiar everyday expressions and very basic phrases aimed at the satisfaction of needs of a concrete type.
introduce yourself and others and ask and answer questions about personal details such as where they live, people they know and things they have.
interact in a simple way provided the other person talks slowly and clearly and is prepared to help.
CEFR Level: French A2.2
- Level 2-3 deals with the conditional tense and colloquial expressions. Again, a strong emphasis is placed on incorporating these new language skills into everyday speech. This course and subsequent levels incorporate many authentic language materials, including film or TV excerpts, magazine articles and podcasts.
- Level 2-4 focuses on the subjunctive tense, expressing opinions and using compound tenses such as the pluperfect and past conditional. Again, a strong emphasis is placed on integrating these tenses into everyday speech.
After completing these levels you’ll be able to:
understand and use familiar everyday expressions and very basic phrases aimed at the satisfaction of needs of a concrete type.
introduce yourself and others and ask and answer questions about personal details such as where they live, people they know and things they have.
interact in a simple way provided the other person talks slowly and clearly and is prepared to help.

Like most pronouns, direct object pronouns replace nouns or nominal groups (group of words that acts as a noun), in order avoid repetition of the same word or same nominal group within a same sentence or a same paragraph. When using a pronoun, it should be clear from the context what or who you are referring to.
