/lit/ - Literature

Sandberg, French for Reading is the classic one. If you cram that you will eventually be ok to read basic texts and work up from there. There are probably similar ones out there but that one is no nonsense.

I read pic related (probably not necessary but I did it anyway), while also doing top 1000 words with Anki. After memorizing the words, I just jumped into easy material like children's books, Harry Potter translations, and whatever else I could find (Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt, Camus, Nothomb, Verne etc).

Learn to speak it, not read it. There's a difference.

French people suck and are going extinct due to their twisted philosophy.

>>17165348
Get more than one resource and work on reading, writing, speaking and comprehension interweavingly. Hard to isolate just one skill even if your end goal is reading. They all build on each other.

All French "philosophers" that ever lived, live or will live in the future are pseuds. It comes with the language, every sentence smells of autofellatio. They are even worse than the Anglos. Voltaire, Rousseau, Diderot, Comte, Sartre, Camus, Beauvoir, Foucault, Deleuze, Derrida, Lacan, ... If you put them all against the wall, nothing of value would have been lost.

Oh yeah also learn to enjoy the process and find ways of keeping yourself motivated as you learn. It also makes you pick up the language faster when you’re having fun (non ironically).

You'll certainly need grammar since French lit is fancy and likes to use literary tenses mixed with subjunctive clauses (je étais vs je fusse). To get an ear for the language, watch easy french on yt along with any other channels that may interest you with subtitles or songs/poems. Lastly, you can safely skip writing and you don't really need to know how to speak it since reading already provides you with all the lines. As a personal example, I can hardly speak or write in Italian but can read their /lit/ just fine.

Duolingo used to be good, but has too many adds now. Their flexability in sentance construction is better than Rosetta Stone. If I was serious, I'd use the paid version of Duolingo.

This. The French Duolingo course is unironically amazing. They must have hired some turbo-autists to do it because the course is freaking endless. Literally over a thousand lessons, each with a few dozen unique sentences at least.

Assimil + Pimsleur is incredibly effective and takes less than an hour of your day.

Learn ca 3000 most common words with anki. start listening to french, there are podcasts for learners. Then buy some grammar books and start reading abridged books for A2 level, then children books and YA. Reading with audio is recommended. You should learn unknown words with anki and should be able to passivley understand most grammar. Then slowly start reading more difficult works. Camus and Voltaire are quite easy.
