BIENVENUE!

On By Mac

Hello and welcome to COMME UN PRO, the student-friendly site dedicated to making French accessible for everyone! I am Mac, your resident teacher and French grammar expert. My mission is simple – to make French grammar a little easier on the average language learner, and to encourage students to be autonomous in their learning. Here I will tackle some of the most problematic aspects of the French language as well as provide tips on improving overall language competence. From those pesky object pronouns we all know and love to the passé composé, this site will have your learning covered. You will be on your way to speaking French comme un pro in no time!

What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever?

It’s hard to explain

Inherently it’s just always been strange

Neither here, nor there

Always somewhat out of place everywhere

Ambiguous, without a sense of belonging to touch

Somewhere halfway

Feeling there’s no one completely the same

Do you think humans will ever colonize Mars? What would life there actually look like?

From early localised empires → Rome → Western European empires, especially Britain → colonisation of most of earth…

Yup, the blueprints already exist, and by this logic another planet in the solar system would be the next aim.

Whether it is right or edifying is another discussion altogether.

What’s the best way to build self-confidence?

Stop believing the lies people tell themselves to get through the day. Then your confidence will be real and built on something substantial. It will feel heavy at first, but clarity is arguably better than weightless chains. Remove the plank from your eye first, then you will be able to see clearly what is in front of you.
