I’ve been wanting to offer you this type of exercise for a while…today is the day! The “dictée” (dictation) is the French exercise by excellence. It is very academic and has been the nightmare of generations of students. (I did like them, though!). Put yourself to the test!

The text of the dictation is in the show notes – don’t cheat and read it before you’ve tried to do it! ?

Why this is an interesting exercise:

It is essential to proofread your text several times after you’ve written it!

Would you like to have more dictations in upcoming episodes? Please send me your feedback

Punctuation signs you need to know for the dictée:

Texte: Au revoir là-haut (Pierre Lemaitre, 2013), Editions Albin Michel, Collection Livre de Poche, page 592
