French 4: pratique et perfectionnement

What Advanced (C1+) French means

At C1+ French, learners can express complex ideas precisely, understand nuance and adapt their language to different contexts.

• Qualify an argument

  Bien que l’argument soit globalement convaincant, il néglige plusieurs conséquences imprévues.

  While the argument is broadly convincing, it overlooks several unintended consequences.

• Convey nuance

  Ce n’est pas la proposition elle-même que je conteste, mais la précipitation avec laquelle elle est mise en œuvre.

  I do not oppose the proposal itself; what I question is the rushed way it is being implemented.

• Adapt your register

  Je vous saurais gré de bien vouloir reconsidérer cette décision au vu des informations complémentaires ci-jointes.

  I would be grateful if you would reconsider the decision in light of the additional information attached.

These are general examples of language use at this level, not a description of any individual course syllabus.
