French common words 201–300

Use this guide as a practical reference, not just a list. These French words come from the SPEAKZY lesson library and are ordered so beginners can build useful recognition quickly. Start by reading the first twelve words out loud, then tap the speaker button beside each entry to hear pronunciation in your browser. The goal is active recall: cover the English side, say the meaning before you check it, and repeat any word that takes more than a second to remember. After the list, use the flashcards and quiz to turn passive recognition into words you can actually use in conversation. For best results, learn in short rounds. Do 10–15 words, take a break, then come back later and test yourself again. When these words feel familiar, move into the matching SPEAKZY lessons so you practise them inside phrases, questions and real everyday sentences.
