We can divide the French newspapers into 3 main categories:
– national daily newspapers: the most recognized papers are Le Monde, Le Figaro and L’Equipe (providing the sport news)
– daily papers that are region based: Le Parisien, Ouest-France, Le Progrès de Lyon, etc.
– free newspapers: different papers have been given for free in the metro for example
How can I use French newspapers to learn French?
I highly recommend my students to regularly read French newspapers in order to learn new vocabulary on current issues. Nowadays, the Internet makes it easier for everyone to access theses resources. Pick a short article on a subject that you already know or that interests you. You can use this method with your teacher during your French lessons with Live-French.net.
Bonne lecture!
