WHAT ARE THE FRENCH MINIMAL PAIRS PRONUNCIATION FLASHCARDS?

The “French Minimal Pairs Examples Flashcards for Anki” are a specially designed pronunciation flashcard deck for Anki, to help you hear, pronounce and memorize the most common French minimal pairs. This digital flashcard deck features audio and IPA to reinforce your learning and make them more memorable for you.

Minimal pairs are pairs of French words that sound very similar but have just 1 sound that differs between them.

Take for example ‘comment’ (IPA: /kɔ.mɑ̃/ ) meaning how and ‘commun’ (IPA: /kɔ.mœ̃/ ) meaning common. These 2 words sound very similar but have different meanings.

When learning French, it is important to recognize the difference between these French minimal pairs to improve your listening and speaking skills.

This is an essential Anki deck for those learning French in order to learn pronunciation and improve your listening skills. We recommend learning the French alphabet and French IPA first before using the French minimal pairs deck. This is an exclusive deck only available in the French pronunciation bundle.
