"J'ai besoin de vêtements, d'un chargeur, de mon ordinateur. Voilà toutes les choses dont j'ai besoin." In this episode, you'll learn how to use the French relative pronoun DONT with verbs that take "de" (avoir besoin de, parler de, se souvenir de...), through 13 everyday situations.
How it works: each scene starts with a short context, then a few sentences with "de," and finally one sentence with "dont" that sums everything up. You'll hear the structure again and again, so it becomes natural. Repeat out loud during the pauses to practice your pronunciation, rhythm, and fluency.
What you'll practice:
The relative pronoun DONT replacing "de + noun" (j'ai besoin de mon ordinateur → l'ordinateur dont j'ai besoin)
Common verbs and expressions with "de": avoir besoin de, avoir envie de, parler de, avoir peur de, profiter de, être fier de, être responsable de, se servir de, s'occuper de, se plaindre de, se débarrasser de, se souvenir de, avoir conscience de
Natural, everyday French you can use right away
Level: B1-B2. Perfect for shadowing practice.

"Je suis content d'avoir terminé mon projet." "Merci de m'avoir aidé." "Après être rentrée, elle a pris une douche." In this episode, you'll practice the French past infinitive (l'infinitif passé) through 16 everyday situations: being happy, sorry, relieved, or disappointed about something that already happened.
How it works: you hear a short situation, then the sentence to repeat, then a quick reminder of the verb form. Repeat out loud during the pauses to practice your pronunciation, rhythm, and fluency.
What you'll practice:
The past infinitive with avoir (avoir terminé, avoir raté, avoir oublié...)
The past infinitive with être (être arrivé, être allé, être parti...), including agreement (elle est triste de ne pas être venue)
Useful structures: adjective + de (content de, déçu de, soulagé de, désolé de), après + past infinitive, je pense avoir + past participle
The negative form: ne pas avoir reçu, ne pas être venu
Level: A2-B2. Perfect for shadowing practice.

In French, we say "je me lave les mains," not "je me lave mes mains." In this episode, you'll practice reflexive verbs with body parts through 15 everyday situations: washing your hands, brushing your teeth, cutting your nails, scratching your head, rubbing your eyes, breaking your arm, spraining your ankle, burning your tongue, and more.
How it works: you hear a short context, then the sentence to repeat, then the verb to remember. Repeat out loud during the pauses to practice your pronunciation, rhythm, and fluency.
What you'll practice:
Reflexive verbs with parts of the body (se laver les mains, se brosser les dents, se gratter la tête, se casser le bras, se cogner la tête...)
The definite article with body parts (les mains, la tête, le bras) instead of the possessive
Natural, everyday French in the present and the passé composé
Level: A2-B2. Perfect for shadowing practice.
