Il y a là une vidéo d'une candidate (au DALF???) qui obtient un score équivalent à
C1... A l'écouter parler, il me semble qu'elle est néerlandaise, mais je ne pourrais
pas le jurer.. peut-être belge flamande...

mon avis: elle se débrouille très bien... effectivement, je ne lui donnerais
peut-être pas C2 mais au moins C1+ !!!


That's quite an impressive video. If only I could have seen this before my exam. I
would definitely give her at least a C1 as well. Her accent is very good and her manner
of speaking gives the impression that she's quite confident with her French. This is
not the DALF exam but it's a good indicator for those of out there learning French what
can be expected of a good effort at a C1 level. I will have the results for my own exam
by the middle of January, I can't wait to find out!!

Mon écriture est loin de parfait et je ne veux non plus isoler mes fidele lecteurs.
Franchement, chaque fois je dois écrire c'est un peu la galere et j'en prends aucun
plaisir. C'est quelque chose qui est essentiel pour la progression mais quelque chose
qui est à la fois facile à négliger.

----------------------------------

Ok time to take some stock and leave this log to rust and disappear into cyber space. I
kind of spent less time working on L-R this year than last year but I replaced this by
listening to 100's and 100's of hours of authentic podcasts put out by radio stations.
I'm at a really good level of listening comprehension now.

A very satisfying thing which I have done which I haven't seen anyone else here do, is
to keep a log of films watched, books read/L-red, courses done. Most of the
satisfaction is keeping a list of films watched. You can slowly and surely over the
space of a year make quite a sizable list of films. I guess not every language learner
has at his disposal the wealth and number of films in French cinema, however even
smaller countries/languages produce surprisingly large numbers of films, I am quite a
fan of some Israeli and Iranian films which are quite recent. I have found that one
director may lead to another or one film to another. Picking up stuff at random can
lead to some nice surprises to.

So that said I will post what I've seen over the course of this year. 2010 was a year
of discovery. I became familiar with some new names whilst enhancing my knowledge of
some others which I knew previously. In my list I wrote the name of the directors who
have a reputation alongside the film and I gave a score which is of course absolutely
pointless. The list was made chronologically as the year went, more often than not I
can remember where, how and with whom I watched these films.

With hundreds of hours' more listening and exposure to French, it sounds like you've reached a very high level in your listening skills. What's it like now to watch a film in French compared to the beginning of the year, and do you understand pretty much all the details? :)

I think there has been quite an improvement from pre-France 2010 and more so 2009. I
went to watch a film today called je t'aime je t'aime and I happily watched away with
everybody else. I think listening to hours and hours of French a day eventually does
ingrain things into your brain. I still feel an immense amount of frustration regarding
my own spoken level. But I'm trying to work on this! One this is for sure, having a
good level of listening comprehension does not equal the same spoken level as some
would have you believe. I won't mention names.

-------------------------------

O.k this will be my last post for this log. Thanks everyone for 2010. In particular my
team mates Buttons and Microsnout and a big thanks to Teango.

I set some moderate goals for the year and I think I surpassed them. My month stay in
France turned into 7-8 months now and I sat the C1 exam instead of the B2 exam as
planned. I used every resource imaginable, but most importantly I got out there and
started communicating in French. I look forward to trying some new things in 2011
(which I will explain in my new log) whilst sticking to what I know works.

Merci a tous!
