Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Yes, indeed, here are some sites for you to investigate. Only save the ones you like:

1. The French Alphabet Pronounced (There is no site so I could post what I have.)

2. Pronunciation = http://www.ldsmissions.net/fpm/fpg.html

3. Learn free: French Lessons =

4. French for Beginners = http://french.about.com/od/beginning/Beginning_French_Lessons_and_Resources.htm

5. Verbix -- Romance languages: conjugate French verbs = http://www.verbix.com/languages/french.shtml

For verbs, if you ask for specific tenses I can send that plus the verbs that follow that pattern.

I have my French sites listed under" Culture, Grammar, Language, Literature, Paris, Verbs and Vocabulary so you can ask for specific things. Now for the vocabulary you requested:

THE FAMILY -- LA FAMILLE

Words -- Mots:

aunt
