How to introduce yourself in French | Video With Pronunciation

A simple French introduction can start with bonjour, then your name: je m’appelle… or moi, c’est…. You can add where you come from, what you do, or one personal detail. The video in this lesson is useful because pronunciation and rhythm matter as much as the words.

For a casual introduction, keep it short and natural: Salut, moi c’est Dan or Bonjour, je m’appelle Dan. Then add one easy sentence, such as je viens d’Angleterre or j’apprends le français. In friendly settings, sounding relaxed is better than building a long, textbook-style paragraph.

Students can use the same core pattern and add school or study details: je suis étudiant, j’étudie le français, or j’habite à…. The article encourages practice out loud, so repeat the phrases with the video until the link between spelling and pronunciation feels less surprising.

One beginner-friendly version is: Bonjour, je m’appelle Dan. Je viens d’Angleterre. J’apprends le français. In English: “Hello, my name is Dan. I come from England. I am learning French.” Once that feels easy, swap in your own country, city, job, or hobby to make it personal.
