WHAT YOU GET

A new episode every morning. Two real stories from the day's news, in everyday French at a pace you can follow.


Every episode has its own page with the full French transcript, the English translation beside it, the day's vocabulary, one grammar point and a short quiz. No account needed to read.


WHY NEWS WORKS BETTER THAN EXERCISES

You already know what happened today. That means your attention goes to the French instead of to the story, which is the fastest route from textbook French to French you actually meet.


WHO A2 IS FOR

You know the basics and you want to stop translating in your head. This is slow French listening practice built on real news rather than scripted conversation. If it feels fast, the same stories run at A1 the same morning. If it feels easy, go to B1+.


NOT SURE THIS IS YOUR LEVEL?

About twenty short questions place you on the CEFR scale and show you what to work on next:
