This set should (hopefully) contain all the vocabulary you need to know for AQA GCSE French. This is for the outgoing specification with last exams in 2025 - only use this if you will be sitting the exams in 2025. For Foundation Tier, you need to know the general vocabulary and the Foundation vocabulary for all themes. For Higher Tier, you need to know the general vocabulary and both the Foundation and Higher vocabulary for all themes. General vocabulary - Comparisons: Cards 1-10; Conjunctions and connectives: Cards 11-36; Prepositions: Cards 37-66; Negatives: Cards 67-74; Numbers: Cards 75-127; Asking questions: Cards 128-147; Greetings and exclamations: Cards 148-176; Opinions: Cards 177-272; Expressions of time: Cards 273-343; Location and distance: Cards 344-370; Colours: Cards 371-378; Weights and measures: Cards 379-408; Shape: Cards 409-410; Weather: Cards 411-452; Access: Cards 453-468; Correctness: Cards 469-484; Materials: Cards 485-493; Common abbreviations: Cards 494-503 Theme 1: Identity and culture - Me, my family and friends: Foundation Cards 504-590, Higher Cards 1425-1471; Technology in everyday life: Foundation Cards 591-652, Higher Cards 1472-1494; Free-time activities: Foundation Cards 653-795, Higher Cards 1495-1519; Customs and festivals in French-speaking countries/communities: Foundation Cards 796-814, Higher Cards 1520-1524 Theme 2: Local, national, international and global areas of interest - Home, town, neighbourhood and region: Foundation Cards 815-973, Higher Cards 1525-1543; Social issues: Foundation Cards 974-1056, Higher Cards 1544-1604; Global issues: Foundation Cards 1057-1117, Higher Cards 1605-1684; Travel and tourism: Foundation Cards 1118-1290, Higher Cards 1685-1747 Theme 3: Current and future study and employment - My studies: Foundation Cards 1291-1300, Higher Cards 1748-1751; Life at school/college: Foundation Cards 1301-1376, Higher Cards 1752-1764; Education post-16: Foundation Cards 1377-1387, Higher Cards 1765-1770; Jobs, career choices and ambitions: Foundation Cards 1388-1424, Higher Cards 1771-1787 Note: For verbs, only irregular forms are included (as well as the infinitive). This includes stem-changing verbs (e.g. préférer → je préfère) and verbs which change their spelling for the sake of pronunciation (e.g. manger → nous mangeons). For verbs with irregular future/conditional stems, only the je form in the future tense is included. For the perfect tense, only the perfect infinitive is included. No subjunctive is included. Note 2: Where words have multiple translations, all of the translations are included in the flashcard corresponding to the earliest instance of the word in the specification. Similarly, if a word appears multiple times in the specification, any instances of it except for the first have been deleted. This will not affect you unless you are studying the flashcards topic-by-topic, or you are sitting Foundation Tier (as occasionally a Higher Tier translation may be added into a Foundation Tier flashcard). Occasionally, I changed the translation of a word if I could not find the translation given in the specification anywhere online (e.g. the specification said produire meant ‘to provide’, but I changed it to ‘to produce’). Words and translations are from the AQA specification (8658). Verb conjugations are from lawlessfrench.com.
