Hello to everyone who wandered into my another attempt at learning foreign language. :) It would seem that the years of school life, academic success, the availability of free time and foreign languages ​​\u200b\u200bthat are so difficult to give .. Or maybe I made it all up?) They never instilled in me love for English, which cannot be said about French) I it will be easier than many guys with a strong spirit and patience who have set themselves a similar goal here (and not only :)), because I once learned a little French. After learning the hard way and the well-deserved success of many smart girls here, I have to cope with this goal! I can’t say anything about my level, but from grade 7 to grade 10, with varying success, I learned something .. something that hasn’t been in my head for a long time) for 2 years I actually didn’t touch French at all, at school previously it was 1-2 per week. Now I want to restore my meager knowledge and achieve an excellent level of proficiency in this beautiful language!

Oh yes, I completely forgot, in 2013 I managed to visit Paris) I will even add a photo, even though he is already 3 years old) As for the language practice ... It was not at all. Yes, yes, I managed, being in France, not to speak French (and even English: D). I have a terrible language barrier with English, I didn’t have this in French, but I didn’t really see the need, since the trip was with a dance group and was not focused on communicating with foreigners in any way). I remember that the only thing that managed to "shine" was "merci", well, I asked for something to be served. How embarrassing, because now I don’t even remember it!

Choose the best

If you decide, you should first understand that it is quite difficult in grammar and pronunciation. And in order to master this language at a conversational level, you will have to develop your speech apparatus for a long time. If you bring up the topic French levels, then the first thing to note is that there are 6 such levels in total. Therefore, we will consider each of them.

А1 (DELF A1) Debutant (F1)

The basic level, which assumes a person's knowledge of how to introduce himself in French, introduce his acquaintances, ask and ask questions, and also participate in simple dialogues.

A2 (DELF A2) Pré-Intermediaire (F2)

The ability to understand simple sentences and common expressions in speech that are affected in the main areas of life. At this level, a person can exchange information with a native speaker on simple everyday topics, talk about himself and his family.

B1 (DELF B1) Intermédiaire (F3)

The person who knows the data French levels, can exchange sentences built in the literary language and communicate on more diverse topics. This level may be sufficient for emigrants, because a person will already be able to communicate with his work colleagues, share impressions and describe various situations.

B2 (DELF B2) Intermédiaire-Supérieur (F4)

This level is more difficult, because, starting from this, French levels enable a person to fully understand complex texts of narrow specialties. This level allows a person to communicate on narrower topics and clearly convey the necessary information.

С1 (DALF C1) Pré-Avancé (F5) and Avancé (F6)

People who have mastered this French language level are able to work with large volumes of complex texts of various subjects and directions. In speech, they do not stumble, instantly perceive information, and are also able to quickly convey to the interlocutor whatever they want.

C2 (DALF C2) Avancé-Supérieur (F7) and Superieur (F8)

Native speakers at this level not only can easily handle any written communication, but also communicate with other native speakers at an instant pace without any hesitation. In this case, a person dilutes his words with emotional shades and distinguishes between dialects. After passing all these levels, a person can be ready for the DALF exam.
