Difference between grâce à and à cause de ?
As a French learner you'll often come across phrases like this which could be confusing especially at first glance. But the difference between these two is very simple
Grâce à = Thanks to (positive sense)
E.g: J'ai plus d'opportunités à pratiquer le français avec des professeurs grâce à Italki
À cause de= Thanks to/because of (negative sense)
E.g: À cause de la pandémie je ne peux plus voyager
Hope this helps😉

Studying French from a non francophone country? No problem 👊🏼
A lot of people believe that to learn their target language they "must" move to the country where the language is spoken but that's not entirely true. Personally I learnt French to a very high level without ever moving to a France or any other francophone country. Every day I'll give you a few tips that can help you achieve the same😊
Tip #1: Don't waste time learning the "wrong basics"
A lot of the time when people start learning French they always feel like the best way to start is with the alphabet, numbers, days of the week etc. This is because that's what is usually done at schools and conventional education systems even when you're learning your native language eg English. But this is only because before you get to school you've already heard a lot of the language at home and you've already been surrounded with it so in a way you already have a base in the language before even getting to school. So that means that what we think are the basics are not actually the basics and are rather "secondary basics".
The main thing really from experience are verbs and how to use verbs in the sentence because that's what makes a sentence have meaning and this is how you can start speaking right from day one!
More on verbs tomorrow...

Hey guys! This evening I'd like to teach you how to use "pour" in French.
In French there are many ways of saying "to" and we can use "à" or "de" depending on what verb we need to use in the sentence as some verb only go with "à" while others only go with "de".
"Pour" is one way to say "to" in French but is used a little bit more specifically. ( P.S "pour" can also mean "for) The simplest way to remember how to use "pour" especially as an English speaker is to think of "in order to".
Pour is used when trying to express purpose for doing something, I.e you're carrying out a function but there's a particular reason behind it.
For example:
Je me suis réveillé tôt ce matin pour être là première élève à l'école !
Je suis ici pour pratiquer mon français
Il m'a appelé pour savoir si je voulais aller à la fête
Do you have more examples? Please share in the comments to practice your French 😊
