French

Communicating in French across reading, writing, speaking, and listening, within Francophone contexts.

French is an official language in 29 countries. It spans from basic greetings to everyday conversation, workplace communication, academic discussion, and literary expression. Beyond grammar and vocabulary, it requires context-appropriate expression, understanding Francophone cultural diversity, and situational communication. Levels are set by cross-validating CEFR and DELF/DALF.
