#é et è are separate sounds

[whale-in-that-case]

Most adorable thing is when people try to write french words and they just put random diacritics on some letters. for flavour.

#mine #i think it's cute #also it's funny because it totally changes the sound of the letter but shhh #unless you do it on 'a' then it has no effect #why do we do that then you ask. well. #good question #some tips: there's only one (1) word that has a ù and it's “où” (where) #à appears alone as a position marker (somewhat similar to at) #and in “voilà” and “là” #é et è are separate sounds #there's no 'o' or 'i' + diacritic i can think of BUT there is also ç which is used to transform a c from a k sound to a s sound #best advice i can give is to individually look up the words
