French Link of the Week

The link for this week is one I use constantly. It is the best online French dictionary that I have found. It gives you definitions, conjugations, examples and even translates words from French to English and vice-versa. It even has a "mot du jour" so that you can learn some interesting new vocabulary.



But one of the best things about this dictionary is that it has a toolbar that you can download and install in your web browser (kinda like the Google search bar) so that you can quickly search words without having to load the web page up every time. Check it out at the link below:

TV5 Dictionnaire MEDIADICO

And as always, if you have any links, news, information or random Frenchness that you would like to share on the blog please feel free to email me at byufrenchstudies@gmail.com.

French Link of the Week

One of the new features that we are bringing to the blog this semester is the French Link of the Week. Each week we will highlight some great French resources online. Hopefully these links will not only help you in you studies, but provide you with interesting resources for the future.

This week our link comes from Professor Cropper, who suggested the following to his FREN 452R students:

"For information about works and authors, instead of Wikipedia, use the Literature Resource Center (available through the BYU library website by clicking on databases A-Z then Literature Resource Center--from off campus your Route Y username and password will be required). Another good resource is the Literary Enclyclopedia (subscription is required for some of the information). These are good sites since they are written by known experts in the fields they discuss."
