This is a set of upper-intermediate level dictées. 20 dictations are included in this resource by Jennifer @ LLL French Academy. Each exercise is an exchange between two people (both read by Jennifer). These dictées are 2 – 3 sentences in length. Many tenses are used as well as pronouns. Dictation exercises are an excellent way to improve your French listening and writing skills. Scroll down to try out a few sample dictations.
Included:
➯ Audio presentation of the dictées. Listen as I read each sentence two times slowly enough for you to understand and write at the same time.
➯ PDF of the numbered French sentences in the dictée and the English translation.
