Organizing Ideas for Speaking and Writing

Structuring Your Thoughts in French\n\nBefore you speak or write, take a minute to outline your ideas. Use bullet points or mind maps to plan your introduction, main points, and conclusion. Connect your ideas with linking words (d'abord, ensuite, enfin) to make your communication clear and logical. This helps you stay on track and impress your audience or exam grader!

Examples

  • Sketching a quick outline before recording your spoken presentation.

  • Using transition words to connect paragraphs in a written essay.
