Learn French: Nous écoutons la météo le week-end. - We listen to the weather forecast on the weekend.

Because the subject is Nous (we). For regular -er verbs like écouter (to listen), you drop the -er from the dictionary form and add -ons to match the "we" form.

Why isn't there a word for "to" after écoutons?

In French, the verb écouter translates as "to listen to". The "to" is already built into the meaning of the verb itself, so you never add an extra word for it before la météo.

Why does the sentence use le for "on the weekend"?

French doesn't use prepositions like "on" for days of the week or weekends. Instead, using the word le (the) before a day or week-end tells us this is a regular habit. le week-end means "on the weekend" or "every weekend".

Do I pronounce the "s" at the end of Nous?

Yes! Normally, the "s" at the end of Nous is silent. However, because écoutons starts with a vowel sound, you pronounce the "s" like a "z" to connect the two words smoothly. This sound connection is called a liaison.
