France is just one of over 40 countries and regions that speak French, but because there is such a wealth of information on this country on the internet, I have created a section for you to explore this area more in depth. Watch any one video from either playlist (history or culture) below, and for a follow up tell me 3 things you learned from the video.
Note: On many of the French language videos, you can get closed captions in French or English. Click on the CC button (if it’s available) to make closed captions appear. Then, to change them to English, click the little gear icon to the right and click “Subtitles/CC” and if English isn’t an option, click “Auto-translate” and select English from the list of languages. If the closed captions are auto-translated, they will not be perfect, especially if the speaker is speaking very fast or not clearly, but they will help you follow along.
