Career event networking: Following Up After the Event

💬 [C'est] is the fixed everyday way to say [it is] or [this is]. The [c'] is joined to the next word and cannot stand alone.

💬 In [nous avons parlé], French uses [avons] plus a past form to mean a finished past action: literally [we have spoken], but often just [we spoke]. You can reuse that pattern with other verbs, like [nous avons discuté].

💬 In [parlé], the final [-é] sounds like (ay). Don't pronounce the final [l] or add an English-style [ed] sound.

💬 French often uses [avoir] plus a past form for completed actions: [nous avons parlé] literally means [we have spoken], but in context it often means [we spoke]. You can swap in other verbs the same way, like [nous avons échangé].
