Author Stephen King said:
“If you want to be a writer, you must do two things above all others: read a lot and write a lot. There’s no way around these two things that I’m aware of, no shortcut.”
If Stephen King were the author of OffQc, I’m sure that he’d have also said:
If you want to be a speaker of French, you must do two things above all others: listen a lot and speak a lot. There’s no way around these two things that I’m aware of, no shortcut.
You listen to French to absorb the language. You speak because you can’t be a speaker of French without speaking.
P.S. Stephen King also said: “French is the language that turns dirt into romance.”
