Respellings follow the course’s say-it key; the stressed syllable is in capitals. Print this lesson’s flashcards (PDF) — the words on the front, the English and respelling on the back.
Hear the words
Each word is read twice — say it back in the gap. Computer-generated voice; credits on the course page.
La règle · The rule
Look back at Lesson 1. You now narrate in writing with three layers of past, regret what did not happen, shift a whole conversation into reported speech, join clauses with the compound relatives, hold a professional conversation, and write the four long texts B2 is examined on. With Module 3, that is the complete B2 level.
Et aussi · And also
Module 5 is the band-mastery book: everything consolidated in DELF B2 shape, and the honest bridge into C1. Vous êtes maintenant un utilisateur indépendant — you are now an independent user, which is CEFR's own name for where you stand.
Attention · Watch out
l'utilisateur indépendant is CEFR's own name for B1-B2. le palier is the landing of a staircase — a stage reached — not a pallet.
Do it now — on paper
Say all 8 words aloud twice from the respelling, then once from the French spelling alone — begin with l'utilisateur indépendant.
Copy every word with its accents on paper; then cover the English column and write each meaning back from the French.
Write two sentences of your own that get the watch-out line right, then the two practice pages of workbook lesson 30 in Module 9 are the written half of this page.
This free course is the reading half. The writing half — write-in lessons, daily practice pages with built-in review, self-checks and a full answer key — is the companion workbook series, The French Ladder: one workbook per module, fifteen in all, released band by band with the Basic band (Modules 1–5) first.
