Conversational Connectors: 30 Phrases to Sound Natural","Kilo Lingo","My year as an English assistant in Le Havre is when I finally understood that the silent pause is the single clearest tell of a non-native French speaker. The colleagues in the staffroom did not pause for thought; they filled every micro-gap with euh, bah, alors, bon. I had been trained to pause silently, the British way, while my brain caught up with the verb conjugation, and the effect in a French conversation was that the conversation kept stopping. The fix was unromantic and fast: vocalise the pause. Pick a connector and use it. Within a fortnight the staffroom stopped slowing down to accommodate me.\n\nThe hill I will die on is that connectors are not optional decoration on otherwise good French; they are part of how French is structurally held together as a spoken language. The textbook grammar is the skeleton, the vocabulary is the flesh, the connectors are the nervous system. A learner who has all the verbs but none of the connectors sounds like a beautifully presented patient who cannot move. The investment is tiny (thirty short phrases) and the perceived leap in fluency is the largest single return I have ever seen at the intermediate level.\n\nMy sharper take is that the register table in this article is the most important part of it and most learners will skim it. Genre and quoi as a sentence-ender are casual to a degree that does not translate; deploying them in a job interview reads as the same kind of misjudgement as wearing trainers to a board meeting. En effet in a casual chat with a flatmate reads as similarly off. The connector choice is the register; learn the bandwidth before you deploy.\n",{"type":41,"value":42,"toc":818},"minimark",[43,47,68,71,76,147,150,153,169,180,183,186,191,194,197,201,204,207,210,214,217,220,224,227,230,234,237,240,244,247,250,253,257,260,263,267,270,273,276,279,283,286,289,292,296,299,302,306,309,312,316,319,322,326,329,332,335,338,342,345,348,352,355,358,362,365,368,372,375,378,382,385,388,391,395,398,401,404,407,411,414,417,420,424,427,430,433,437,440,443,446,450,453,456,460,463,466,470,473,476,479,482,486,489,492,496,499,502,506,509,512,515,519,522,525,529,532,535,538,541,545,548,551,555,558,561,565,568,571,574,577,581,584,587,591,594,597,600,603,606,694,700,703,706,732,735,738,741,744,777,780,783,787,790,794,797,801,804,808,811,815],[44,45,37],"h1",{"id":46},"french-conversational-connectors-30-phrases-to-sound-natural",[48,49,50,51,55,56,59,60,63,64,67],"p",{},"French conversational connectors - the filler, hesitation, and discourse-marker phrases that hold a conversation together - are more numerous, more register-sensitive, and more structurally important in French than in almost any other Romance language.

Native French speakers use them continuously, and their absence is what marks intermediate output as robotic.

The neutral set (en fait, voila, alors, bref, bon, tout a fait, c'est ca, c'est-a-dire) is safe in almost any spoken context.
