Questions
Is this French listening game free?
Yes — it plays in your browser with no sign-up. Sign in only if you want to save the phrases to your review deck and track your best score.
What if I can't catch a word?
Replay the audio as many times as you need, or hit the slow-down button to hear it at a gentler pace. Most of each phrase is already filled in, so you only need the missing letters.
How is this different from dictation?
Dictation asks you to type the whole sentence from scratch. Here most of the phrase is given and you only fill in scattered missing letters by ear — a gentler, more guided way to train your listening.
