à in real context

à is a A1-level word in French meaning "prep. 到;在;向" in this vocabulary set. Every word on LangOria comes with a real example sentence, so you meet à the way native speakers actually use it — not as an isolated dictionary entry, but inside a living French sentence.

Add à to your A1 spaced-repetition review and it will resurface right before you are about to forget it — tomorrow, in three days, in a week. Combined with the rest of the French A1 vocabulary set, a daily 45–65 minute loop is the fastest proven path from first exposure to confident, natural use of à.

About French A1

A1 is the entry-level tier in CEFR — the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. At A1 you can introduce yourself, ask and answer simple questions about personal details, and hold a basic conversation provided the other person speaks slowly and clearly. The words at A1 are the high-frequency words that show up in the overwhelming majority of everyday speech: greetings, numbers, family, food, weather, directions, time. Mastering A1 words is the foundation of French fluency — every later level is built on these words.

How to learn French A1

Spend your first 4-6 weeks on A1 words. The 45–65-minute daily loop is enough — review the A1 deck with spaced repetition until your recall rate is above 90%, then start adding A2 words one batch per week. Pair the deck with a basic grammar primer for French verb forms (or sentence-final particles, for languages like Korean and Japanese) so you can start producing your own sentences from day one.

Common questions about à in French

What level is à in French?

In LangOria's French deck, à sits at the A1 level of the language's recognized ability ladder (CEFR for most languages, JLPT for Japanese, HSK for Chinese). At this level you learn à alongside the highest-frequency words you actually need.

How do I memorize à?

Rote repetition rarely sticks on its own. Learn à inside its example sentence, say it out loud, and let spaced repetition bring it back at the right moments. The 45–65-minute daily loop is usually enough to anchor à in long-term memory.

Where does the example for à come from?

Every word — including à — carries a real example drawn from the community-built Tatoeba sentence corpus: sentences written by native speakers, not synthetic textbook filler. That context is what makes à memorable.

What should I learn after à?

Cover the remaining words at the A1 level, then move up. LangOria schedules spaced reviews and frequency-ordered decks, so à reinforces the rest of your A1 French vocabulary instead of standing alone.
