Name : ……………………………………………………………

AQA GCSE French Vocabulary Booklet This is the complete list of vocabulary that you need to be able to recognise and understand for success in

GCSE Reading and Listening at the end of Year 11.

You need to be able to produce ie (spell and pronounce) a smaller range of vocabulary for success in GCSE

Speaking and Writing. Of course, the more you know, the higher your grades.

HOWEVER……. to be GCSE ready, it’s not just what you know, it’s what you know how to do. The techniques

below are essential, as you can’t memorise this whole book. It’s impossible!!!!

Vocabulary learning skills: TECHNIQUE SWAG BAG

1. To try and reduce the number you need to learn, try to use all the tricks you can e.g. a. “ha ha it sounds like” – Laine = wool = a sheep called Len. (If it makes you laugh it is more

likely to work. Our brains are funny like that!) b. “ooh it reminds me of” – pantalon = a bit like pantaloons = those funny old fashioned

trousers in your history books.

2. At home, do it little and often - lots of breaks because it is boring!

3. No background noise/music. (Music is good for concentration for most other HW but bad for memorisation HW – it just is. Sorry!)

4. Learn the meanings first. Cover up the English

Test yourself: Look – cover – say (the English) – check

Test yourself again: Look – cover – say – check (just ones you got wrong)

When you have 100% correct, move on

5. Now learn the spellings.

Cover up the French

Test yourself: Look – cover – write (the French) – check

Look – cover – write – check (just the ones you got wrong)

When you have 100% correct, have a biscuit!

Writing and Speaking skills: TECHNIQUE SWAG BAG

1. Substitution. Write/say what you know how to say NOT what you want to say. e.g. The question says ‘where did you go last year on holiday?’ Oh dear – you went to Greece. Ah ha! but you know how to say Espagne.

2. Recycling. Learn the useful structures that you can re-use in lots of topics. e.g. on doit + infinitive = we must. Can be used for: e.g.

holidays – we must visit the Eiffel Tower. School – we must wear uniform

Work – we must arrive on time Restaurants – we must try a desert

Family – we must not argue with our family Healthy living – we must eat vegetables

e.g. j’aimerais + infinitive = I would like Can be used for: e.g.

holidays – I would like to visit NY School – I would like to study Biology

Work – I would like to be a doctor Restaurants – I would like to eat snails

Family – I would like to visit my grandma Healthy living – I would like to eat more fruit

Reading and Listening skills: TECHNIQUE SWAG BAG

1. Cognates/near cognates. This is easy. If it looks like a word in English, it probably is. E.g. rapide, timide, hôpital, commencer. Watch out for a few ‘false friends’ e.g. user = worn-out, sensible = sensitive

2. Context. Look around the word. E.g. je suis resté dans un hôtel de 5 étoiles. What could étoiles mean ? It’s about hotels. It says a 5 …. Hotel. Of course, it must mean star. A 5 star hotel. Obvious really

3. Words within a word. If you see a long word, look in it for clues to find a word you already know. E.g. parapluie

pluie = rain, para pluie = for rain = umbrella

4. Grammar rules. Use grammar rules you know to work out meaning (also see pg 102 -green kerboodle text book)

E.g.…é in French is the same as …..ed in English joué = played

e.g. …ment in French is ……ly in English so rapidement = quickly

e.g. ….eur in French is a person. chanteur = singing person = singer

/ joueur = playing person = player

Listening specific skills:

1. Know your sound/spelling links. French is easier than English because it actually follows its rules. E.g. e = [UH] eu = [UH]

é / ée = [AY] qu = [K]

è / ei / ê = [AIR] oi = [WA]

er / ez / et / es / ès / est / = [AY] o / eau / au = [OH]

ai / ais / ait / aix / aient = [AY] in / ain / im = [ANG]

ille = [EE] (usually) gn = [NY]

2. Listen for gist. Sometimes you don’t have to know exactly what is happening to get the right answer. Just generally what it is about. E.g. its about friendship

3. Listen for key info. e.g. you can ignore all the bits you don’t understand. You might just be listening out for a time, a day of the week or a price.
