French listening practice, beyond another replay
Use an actual recording for the attempt. Then decide whether you missed a sound, a word, a change of plan or the overall message before choosing what to practise next.
Choose Listening on the dashboard. This page links existing audio practice; it does not generate recordings or present written dialogues as listening tests.
Start with the listening process
Use an audio source for the attempt, then review what caused the miss. Reading a transcript alone is not a listening attempt.

Review one listening attempt
- Use the listening conditions you chose for the attempt. Do not open a transcript before answering.
- Write a short account of what you heard: who, what happened, and what changed or was requested.
- After the attempt, compare with the explanation or transcript where the source provides one. Mark what you could recognise only after reading it.
- Choose one repair below. Use a fresh recording for the next check, rather than treating a memorised replay as new evidence.
Let the mistake choose your next step
Open the description closest to what happened. These are self-review routes, not an automated diagnosis.
