There's no "one, official pronunciation" in French. Far from it. There are several ones, within France, and across French-speaking countries.
- logicrook 11y agoWhat? Do you have any example? I'm not sure I could come up with ten words that are pronounced differently by different kind of French. 'Vingt' and 'moins' are such examples, because their orthographies are so nonsensical that some consider letters to be pronounced and not some others (a bit like 'often' in English).
- wirrbel 11y agoThe parisian dialect is to my knowledge the reference dialect that you can focus on, and it is the prestigious dialect. The situation is different in English where the situation is not clear at all. That however was not the point I was trying to make, rather, I wanted to point out that the volume of the language is more compact, so you reach the point earlier where you "polish" your skills.
