- Lucas: Bienvenue, welcome back to Learn French with Fexingo! I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Hey Lucas, last time we counted from one to five. Should we keep going? Lucas: Absolutely. Today we're learning numbers six to ten in French. Ready? Luna: Yes, let's do it. I already know un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq. Lucas: Great. So after cinq comes six. In French, six is... six. Listen: six. Luna: Six. That sounds like 'sees'? Lucas: Close. It's more like 'seess' with a soft s at the end. Try again: six. Luna: Six. Six. Lucas: Perfect. Next: seven is sept. S-e-p-t. But the p is almost silent. Listen: sept. Luna: Sept. So like 'set'? Lucas: Exactly. Sept. You've got it. Luna: Sept. I can do that. Lucas: Number eight: huit. H-u-i-t. The h is silent. Say: huit. Luna: Huit. That's like 'weet'. Lucas: Yes, but with a little 'ee' sound. Huit. Luna: Huit. Huit. Lucas: Good. Now nine: neuf. N-e-u-f. Listen: neuf. Luna: Neuf. Like 'nuff' but with an 'e'? Lucas: Kind of. Try: neuf. Luna: Neuf. Neuf. Lucas: And finally ten: dix. D-i-x. The x sounds like 's' at the end. Listen: dix. Luna: Dix. That's 'deess'? Lucas: Exactly. Dix. Luna: Dix. I think I've got them. Can we try all in order? Lucas: Sure. Repeat after me: six, sept, huit, neuf, dix. Luna: Six, sept, huit, neuf, dix. Lucas: Nice. Now let's do a quick scene. Imagine I'm buying croissants. I need six croissants. How do I say six? Luna: Six. Je voudrais six croissants? Lucas: Perfect. And if I want seven? Luna: Sept. Je voudrais sept croissants. Lucas: Excellent. For eight, nine, ten? Luna: Huit, neuf, dix. Je voudrais huit croissants... but that's a lot. Lucas: True. Okay, let's do a tiny challenge. I'll say a number in English, you say it in French. Ready? Luna: Ready. Lucas: Six. Luna: Six. Lucas: Seven. Luna: Sept. Lucas: Eight. Luna: Huit. Lucas: Nine. Luna: Neuf. Lucas: Ten. Luna: Dix. Lucas: Wow, you nailed it. Now let's combine with what we know. Count from one to ten. Luna: Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf, dix. Lucas: That's it. So good. Luna: Thanks. I feel like I could order a lot of croissants now. Lucas: Just don't eat them all. Okay, before we go, let's do a quick review of today's new words. Luna: Yes, please. Lucas: Six, sept, huit, neuf, dix. Repeat after me. Luna: Six, sept, huit, neuf, dix. Lucas: Perfect. Now you can count from one to ten in French. Luna: That's so satisfying. Thanks, Lucas. Lucas: You're welcome. Remember, practice makes perfect. Keep saying them until they're automatic. Luna: I will. And thanks to Fexingo for this lesson. Lucas: Yeah, Fexingo makes it easy. That's all for today. Practice your numbers, and we'll see you next time. Luna: À bientôt! Lucas: Yes, à bientôt! Bye!
