Abstract

Our research focuses on the simultaneous teaching/learning of two foreign languages in the primary cycle, in particular English and French. It is also interested in showing the impact of English on French in the various oral and written activities. We tried to verify if the contribution of English influences the learning of learners of the French language and how its effects manifest. Methodologically, we have opted for: -A description and analysis of the two activities of oral expression and sound reading in order to obtain the necessary data on the impact of the two foreign languages on the learner’s learning. -A questionnaire intended for French teachers to determine and verify to what extent English can influence the learning of French as a foreign, new language in a course presented for the students of the third year in the primary cycle. Through our study, we have come to clarify the similarity and the difference between these two language systems. We resolved that English may have influenced the learning of French. Its impact can be positive or negative depending on the objective of its user. It also aims to strengthen its language system and in some cases, it facilitates the task for the teacher either at the graphic or phonetic level.
