The exercises that accompany the lessons and are at the end of each audio lesson - what
are they actually for? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

For seeing if you have learned what is in the lesson you have just done, have done a few days or weeks ago and for giving you sentences set out in model grammar.

Are we talking about the same thing? I'm talking about the set of phrases with no
instructions. It's not remotely clear what you're supposed to do with them .. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I think they're for reinforcing what you've learned. They don't fit in with the dialogue so they're just showing you how the grammar and words can be used in other ways without having to artifically create a weird dialogue to show the different aspects of the words that are being used. That's my understanding of it anyway.

Do you have only the audio and not the book? If you have the book it should be clear what the exercises are for, since they match exercises in the book. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Personally, I just treat theses "excercises" in the same way as I do the dialogue, i.e listen, repeat, translate from L1 to l2 etc.

Have you read the instructions at the start of the book? You are supposed in the passive wave to translate them from French to English and in the active wave from English to French.
Personally I translate them from English to the target language (e.g. French) from the start to get some active production early on. 1 person has voted this message useful |
