SpringBreeze Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 What French word(s) do you misspell often? For me, I mess up a lot on the accents aigu and grave. Because we don't have accents in English, I'm not even sure if that's considered a misspelling. So, anyway, alot of the words that have an accent on the "a", I get wrong.

MarcArgent Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 Spelling and pronounciation are one of the most important thing we need to take note when studying French. A little mistake on these two can sometimes be disastrous and embarrassing. Accents are important part of the French language. Failing to put an accent on a word will change its meaning. For example is "a," wihout accent, it refers to the past participle form of the verb avoir in the third person singular. Putting a grave accent on it changes the meaning to the preposition "to."
