Sorry for making such a long video ! Plus, I made some horrible english mistakes (ts, ts, ts NOT GOOD!)
Trying to explain some french pronunciation rules, taking the word “BONJOUR” as an example.
B = pronounced like the english B (baby/ブ)
ON = French nasal sound, pronounced like in the video at 1:32
“ON” should be pronounced that way when placed at the very end of word or in front of a consonant. In front of B or P, the letter N becomes M.
J = pronounced like in the video at 5:05 (j ≠ dj)!!!
OU = pronounced [ue/ウ] like in “true”
R = See video called “Pronunciation of the French R”:
