- You know there are different ways of speaking depending on
the situation and on the person you’re talking to :
If you're speaking to someone you meet for the first time, someone you don’t know well or you keep distances with or someone you show respect to (like your boss), you will use vous which is a polite way to speak to someone.
If you're speaking to someone you know quite well, you will use tu.
Next lessons will have the same construction but they might be more developped.
We will see new vocabulary and new useful grammatical notions. But trust us, we will keep going slowly, progressing step by step ! You’ve already achieve so much. Hang on.
