I myself use rote learning a lot, but it also helps if you just connect certain words to things in everyday life, the more connections you make, the easier it will be to remember. Blah, I don't like French myself, although a lot of people think its sofisicated. I've been trying to learn some Japanese and German, cause I want to study WW2 material in those languages. If you know anyone who speaks fluent French, try to have converstions in French with them daily.
