In this recording, I teach you how to pronounce the French word for perfume and flavor, and the French word for fragrant. Note that, the F-U-M in parfum has the same pronunciation as the French word for hunger, faim. Also note that, whereas the English word "perfume" has a Y sound (we say, "perf-you-m,") there is no Y sound in the French word parfumE.
