I'm a low A2, how do you recommend increasing verbal output?

The most useful thing I've used is Preply (once a week with a tutor). But I need much more. As a bonus, every few weeks, I get together with a group of francophones/francophiles for an hour or two. It's still not enough for daily practice.

I do a lot of other things at home like repetition and narrating my life. Those are miniscule compared to true output of course.

Any recommendations for what I can do? Merci!

Question sur les films d'animation doublés en français ?

Excusez mon français, ce n'est pas ma langue maternelle. Je me suis toujours posé cette question.

Quand j'étais enfant (anglophone), je n'arrivais jamais à voir qu'un film d'animation doublé en anglais avait été animé à l'origine pour une langue étrangère.

Cependant, en grandissant, il est devenu évident de distinguer quels films d'animation étaient doublés ou non, rien qu'à la façon dont les comédiens de doublage jouaient.

Je me demande donc : est-ce une expérience courante en France ?

If you're watching French news to increase your audio input but need something slower, I recommend streaming a French church service (even if you're not religious)

I just discovered this myself when I was wondering what religious services are like in France. I've tried listening to the news, but a.) it still feels way too fast for a beginner like me, and b.) it hasn't been good for my mental health constantly being bombarded by reports or war and tragedy.

What I've enjoyed most is that everyone in a church service who steps up to the pulpit always speaks extremely clear with strong enunciation. Every word is very deliberate. And suddenly I don't feel quite so lost, and it's given me quite the boost in my confidence for my own fluency!

The more liturgical, the better, I've found. I particularly like this video from a Swiss church for example.

Anyway, hope this helps someone out there. Bonne journée!
