Le sujet : “Violence, les écrans en accusation
Mis à jour pour 2026. À l’oral du DELF B2, l’exposé de 3 minutes n’est que la première moitié de l’épreuve.

Ce guide reprend le sujet classique “Violence : les écrans en accusation” avec l’exposé corrigé, puis simule le débat avec le jury à travers des questions-réponses type, et termine par une stratégie concrète pour cette phase souvent négligée dans la préparation. Pour le format complet de l’épreuve, voir aussi notre guide de préparation au DELF.
DALF C1 vs. DELF B2: What’s the Real Difference?
If you’ve been studying French for a while, you’ve probably run into two intimidating acronyms: DELF B2 and DALF C1.

But they are not the same exam, they are not the same difficulty, and choosing the wrong one can cost you time and money.
Si Clauses in French: The Complete Guide to Conditional Sentences
You already know how to say “if I have time” or “if I had known” in English without thinking twice. In French, that same simple word — si — opens the door to one of the trickiest grammar patterns learners face: knowing exactly which tense to pair it with, and which tense to use in the result.

They’re one of the sneakiest traps in language learning precisely because they don’t feel like mistakes. They feel like shortcuts.
This guide rounds up the false friends that catch English speakers most often, organized by how badly they can backfire, plus a few tricks for spotting new ones on your own.
French Noun Gender Rules: Patterns and Exceptions Every Learner Should Know
Ask any French learner what trips them up first, and “le or la?” comes up almost every time. Unlike English, every single French noun carries a gender — masculine or feminine — and that gender changes the article, the adjective endings, and sometimes even the pronoun you use later in a sentence. Get the gender wrong and a sentence that should sound natural suddenly feels shaky.

TCF Canada Practice Resources 2026: Official Samples, Timed Drills & an 8-Week Study Plan
