Hear the words
Each word is read twice — say it back in the gap. Computer-generated voice; credits on the course page.
La règle · The rule
Every claim in a synthesis belongs to a document and must be traceable to it — without footnotes, and without the word je anywhere on the page.
Et aussi · And also
The formulas do it invisibly: le premier document souligne que..., cette analyse rejoint celle de..., à l'inverse, le troisième texte avance que... Rejoindre and à l'inverse are the two joints you will use most.
Attention · Watch out
No je anywhere and no footnotes: le premier document souligne que…, à l'inverse, le troisième texte avance que…. rejoindre une analyse means to agree with it, and rejoindre is irregular: il rejoint, ils rejoignent.
rejoindre — the table
je rejoins · tu rejoins · il/elle rejoint · nous rejoignons · vous rejoignez · ils/elles rejoignent
Do it now — on paper
Say all 8 words aloud twice from the respelling, then once from the French spelling alone — begin with rejoindre une analyse.
Copy every word with its accents on paper; then cover the English column and write each meaning back from the French.
Write out rejoindre in full from memory, every person, and check each form against the table above.
This free course is the reading half. The writing half — write-in lessons, daily practice pages with built-in review, self-checks and a full answer key — is the companion workbook series, The French Ladder: one workbook per module, fifteen in all, released band by band with the Basic band (Modules 1–5) first.
