When students write in French, I often see words spelled with an initial uppercase which shouldn’t be: the English language uses capital letters in more situations than the French language does – typically with days of the week or months of the year. Let’s go through a useful checklist of words that require a capital letter in French.
Vocabulary and Spelling of the French Words mentioned in this episode
les Français, les Européens, les Vikings
une Française, une femme française
la langue française, le français
la Joconde
La Nuit des temps (de Barjavel)
La Bête humaine (de Zola)
Le Petit Prince (De Saint Exupéry)
Fables de La Fontaine :
La Cigale et la Fourmi
Le Lièvre et la Tortue
Candide ou l’Optimisme (Voltaire)
Madame la Directrice, Monsieur l’Ambassadeur, Monsieur le Président / le Ministre
