French vocabulary by CEFR level, A1–C1

Words on this page: 562. Each opens a card with its meaning and an example.

French spelling keeps letters it no longer pronounces: the t of nuit is silent, so a word is worth hearing before reading. Stress falls on the last syllable. Every noun has a gender, and the article in the example shows it. Familiar-looking verbs mislead: attendre means to wait, rester means to stay. Être and avoir, to be and to have, also build the past tense, so they come first.
