Karate – le karaté
(Pronounced ka-ra-tay)
To remember that Karate is pronounced ka-ra-tay (karaté) in French, use the following mnemonic:
She was so good at karate she could kick as high as the Eiffel Tower.
NOTE: The Eiffel Tower is a French icon, and whenever you see it in one of our images, it means that the word is pronounced the same in both English and French.
Karaté is masculine, so it's le karaté. Imagine the early learner being beaten up at karate.
