Excerpt from The Mastery of French, Direct Method, Vol. 1: A Series of Lessons, Including a Simple Key to Pronunciation, Which Will Enable the Student to Read and Understand the Language, and Through His Power to Speak Correctly, Will Give Him the Confidence to Express His Thoughts in French
Why study French It enables one to obtain an insight into the life and literature of the French people, to acquire a command of a language which will give an added source of enjoyment in reading. It is a valuable aid when traveling abroad, a medium of personal and business communication with those in many lands, and a key which opens a door to storehouses of information along lines of scientific research.
The study of French will be of little value unless it leads to a vocabulary of everyday words and phrases peculiar to the French. Furthermore, it should give a knowledge of French grammar, an ability to read, write and spell the language, and, by no means least, it should bring about such an accurate pronunciation that one can make himself clearly understood.
Pronunciation. The best way to learn a language is by using it. In consequence the matter of pronunciation is of prime importance. The beginner is faced with the necessity of pronouncing the words in the very first lesson of this book.
How shall he do it? What knowledge has he to guide him? He already is, or should be, familiar with the sounds of his own tongue. He appreciates that the a in father has a differ ent sound than the a in fate. He knows that the c in egg has a different sound than the e in me. Certain English conso nants have two sounds and these he knows. Here, then, is a foundation on which to build one which furnishes a simple, direct key to French pronunciation without the necessity of struggling to learn a third and separate set of symbols.

Excerpt from The Mastery of French, Direct Method, Vol. 1: A Series of Lessons, Including a Simple Key to Pronunciation, Which Will Enable the Student to Read and Understand the Language, and Through His Power to Speak Correctly, Will Give Him the Confidence to Express His Thoughts in French
Most French sounds have their equivalents in English sounds which the student is using every day. If, then, he can be led to see that the appalling French (3 is really his own familiar e in egg, that the French e has the sound of a in fate and that most of the consonants have the same sounds in both languages, he will realize that his tongue has no need to learn a new cunning. When he appreciates the many equivalent sounds of the two languages and has fixed in mind the Eng lish type words which give the key to the French sounds, he has acquired a basis for independence in French pronuncia tion. With this foundation and with constant and repeated drill his confidence in his ability to pronounce will increase rapidly. When the teacher pronounces a word, he can pic ture it. The pronunciation of new words will offer little difficulty.
The simple Key to French pronunciation which is given in the introductory part of this volume will prove a short cut to rapid progress. Its mastery will enable a student to apply the Direct Method from the start in a way which cannot help securing results in the shortest possible time, in under standing, in speaking and in thinking in French.
