Native
Street French
Native-level French: the real spoken language — slang, elisions and the fast, natural speech you hear on the street and in films.
- Typical hours
- off the scale
- From zero
- a lifetime of pleasure
- Exam
- none — that’s the point
What Street French gives you
Not on any exam. Audible in every French kitchen.
- Understand fast, mumbled, slang-heavy French
- Read the register of a room and match it
- Use fillers, cut syllables and street contractions naturally
- Swear appropriately, and know when not to
- Follow rap, stand-up and heated dinner arguments
