Tips for Pronunciation:

* Nasal vowels: Pay attention to the "n" sound in words like "un," "cinq," and "dix." It's not a full "n" but a nasalized vowel sound.

* Silent letters: French has many silent letters. For example, the "e" at the end of "un" is silent.

* "s" sound: The "s" in "six" is pronounced like a "z" sound.

* "x" sound: The "x" in "dix," "six," and "dix-huit" sounds like a "ks" sound.

* "ou" sound: The "ou" in "deux" and "douze" sounds like the "oo" in "moon."

Remember: Practice makes perfect! Listening to French speakers and using online resources like Forvo can help you refine your pronunciation.
