Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

Do you use capital letters for days and months in French?

In French, days of the week and months usually do not start with a capital letter unless they begin a sentence. This is different from English, where they are normally capitalised.

How do I say on Monday and in January in French?

You often use “le” with days to talk about a routine, such as “le lundi” for “on Mondays”. For months you commonly use “en”, for example “en janvier”.

How do you give directions in French at KS3?

You can give simple directions using short commands like “tournez à gauche” (turn left), “tournez à droite” (turn right), and “allez tout droit” (go straight on). These phrases are useful in role plays and real travel situations.
