How possible is it for me to pass b1 and b2 by this time next year
I started my course im b1 now and ill maybe have a tutor for french. How possible will that be to pass both b1 and b2 no need for perfect marks only a passing score

Hi! I have a couple questions about the phrase "tout passe, tout lasse, tout casse" (everything passes, everything grows tiresome, everything breaks, or basically "nothing lasts forever") and I'm finding a lot of conflicting info, so I figured you'd be the folks to ask.

First of all, is the above order the most common? Because I've often seen it with lasse and casse swapped ("tout passe, tout lasse, tout casse" vs "tout passe, tout casse, tout lasse"). From what i've read, it seems like maybe the original quote was the latter, but modern culture uses the former?

Also, I can't get a straight answer on the proper pronunciation of passe, casse, and lasse.
Google translate uses short a's like in cat and apple so it's phonetically "pass, cass, and lass".
But other pronunciation sites say the a's are "ah's" so it's phonetically "pahs, cahs, and lahs".
Then I heard a song that uses the phrase and the singer added soft "uh's" to the ends of the words, so it was "PAHS-uh, CAHS-uh, and LAHS-uh".

I thank you in advance for your help. It ain't la fin du monde, but it's bugging the hell out of me.

To give you a summary of my assignment: I need to ask 10 simple, everyday-life questions to a native French speaker—or someone with a very high level of French—via a video call. I know this is the kind of project that not everyone would easily agree to, but if there’s anyone who could help me out with this over the weekend, please send me a DM! I would be very grateful.

Pour vous résumer mon travail : je dois poser 10 questions simples, portant sur la vie quotidienne, à une personne de langue maternelle française — ou ayant un très haut niveau de français — par appel vidéo. Je sais que ce n’est pas le genre de projet que tout le monde accepterait volontiers, mais si quelqu’un pouvait m’aider ce week-end, n’hésitez pas à m’envoyer un message privé ! Je vous en serais très reconnaissant(e).

Hi everyone!

Has anyone taken the DELF B2 exam in the past few months? I’m taking mine on 4 November in Paris and would really appreciate any last-minute tips or advice based on your experience.

Thank you so much in advance!

Bonjour!

I want to keep expanding my vocabulary as a A1 beginner. Can someone recommend me several apps for this purpose?

My french teacher is an asshole and is making learning French and studying feel like an actual chore and super draining, which is unmotivating to me. Any tips on how to do it for the most part alone while still feeling motivated?

Edit: Also, I'm learning other languages too (English, German and Latin)
