Oh, starting with a pronunciation challenge! I like that they're diving right in. That word 'anneau' is a classic tricky one, I've heard people stumble on it before.
Okay, so the 'a' sound is like 'father'? That's a good foundational rule to establish early on. Makes sense that this would simplify other vowel combinations.
And they're saying 'ai' is also like that 'father' 'a' sound? That's definitely a common pitfall, so clarifying that right away is super helpful for learners.
