Welcome to “La Dictée”! This podcast is designed to help you improve your French listening and writing skills. Each episode provides a dictation exercise where you can practice transcribing French sentences as you listen. First, I’ll read the text at normal speed, and then I’ll break it into smaller sections so you can pause, rewind, and write it down at your own pace. You’ll also learn how to use French punctuation: At the end of each episode, you can download a PDF with the correct answers to check your work.
