There are many other types of posts on this site. I’ve only just started organizing them. This is number 172. That feels like a lot, but it’s only about 1 hr of French so far. Have you listened to all the posts on site? If you’re a beginner, I recommend you start with the first Balades episode.
How did you find today’s clip compared to yesterday’s clip? This very short clip is slower slightly. I definitely feel more comfortable when clips are around 150wpm, but everyone’s level is different.
Even with these faster clips, Balades continues to be one of the best for A1-A2 learners of French! What do you think? Join us for the next quiz.
