can you be fluent in french,?

Question

without being able to write in french?

Answer 1

absolutely, enroll in french language school and practice,practice, practice, talk, talk, talk

Answer 2

It depends what you mean by writing - I know lots of people on my degree course who are fluent at speaking their chosen languages but who have trouble with grammar, and so they get relatively poor marks for written work.
It's hard to imagine a situation where you could speak fluent French but be completely unable to write a single word of it, unless you only ever speak it and never read/write it. If you did that, your use of the language would be really limited.

Answer 3

Yes, you can be fluent in speaking French; but you will probably make quite a few grammatical errors unless you have an idea of how things are written. Fluent just means "flowing" - it doesn't necessarily follow that what flows makes a lot of sense.

Answer 4

If you studied it for a really longtime and you study it about nearly all the time, then yes it's possible. If you stay in France or a french speaking country, you tend to notice that not only will you develop a french accent, but you also can put some sentences together in french fluently.

It's quite possible, but you have to study it for such a long time.

Answer 5

Yes, it is possible, if you learned French by talking to people rather than in school. Writing in French is difficult, not just because of the grammar and spelling, but because they put a lot of enphasis in their language, which is difficult to grasp for a non-native speaker, and for natives, too! Immagine that they dedicate a whole school year (premiere, last but one year) to French literature at the end of which you have to take acomplicated exam (written and oral).

Answer 6

The majority of the French population were before education became standard.

Answer 7

Yes. One of the Haitian gardeners where we live is fluent in French (it's the language we always speak together) and is completely illiterate in any language.

Answer 8

The answer is yes. Children learn their mother tongue before they can read or write.
As an adult being able to read the language is a reinforcement, but not paramount. Writing the language correctly comes later

Answer 9

i think it also needs your know-how in writing...

but if your fluent in french, it means youre also good at it in writing

Answer 10

yes. they are 2 separate entities but of similar concept. you can also read and understand in a language but not speak it. like dead languages. it is impossible to know the accent of a language just by looking at it as it is impossible to read in a language if you just know the spoken word.

its hard to understand this consept to because most languages in the western world stem from common languages.

take Chinese calligraphy and Egyptian as an example

Answer 11

yes u can but you will always face grammatical mistakes so learn french on speaking and writing it will very helpful for u
