I LOVE your site and can’t thank you enough for what must be an enormous amount of work. After visiting Hyeres and Provence, and Paris this year, I’m making a long term commitment to learning French…but correct pronounciation seems as key as actually learning the language. To this end, with all the wonderful audio files available, I really wish for an audio file of verbs…not every tense, but maybe the most commonly used verbs in present tense. I have audio aids such as Plimseur and FFDummies, but think such an audio file would really compliment your site.
Thanks again
