Apply the practical TOEIC® question format used around the world to French language learning.
TOEIC® is an English proficiency test used in more than 160 countries around the world. It is particularly strong at measuring practical English skills, with an emphasis on communication in business and the workplace.
Rather than simply testing knowledge of vocabulary and grammar, it uses as its subject matter situations actually encountered in business and daily life, such as workplace conversations, meetings, phone calls, business trips, contacting clients, emails, advertisements, and informational notices.
It also consists of 7 Parts that systematically check practical language ability, including questions where you look at a photo and understand the situation, questions where you choose an appropriate response to a question, questions where you listen to and comprehend conversations and announcements, and questions where you read emails and documents and understand their content.
FRENG applies this practical and systematic TOEIC® question format to French language learning.
Leveraging the wide range of business and daily-life subject matter and question structure used in TOEIC®, it provides original learning questions that let you work on listening and reading in French. It is not a teaching material that replaces settings and characters with French-speaking ones; rather, it is structured so that you learn common subject matter centered on the United States in French.
In addition, it combines grammar and vocabulary questions that are important in French learning, such as noun gender, articles, adjective gender and number agreement, verb conjugation, and tenses.
This allows you to train not only by memorizing vocabulary and grammar, but also the comprehensive language skills needed to listen to and read French and accurately understand its content.

Frequently asked questions about French learning
Listening and Reading are said to be French versions of the English TOEIC®-style mock tests created by FRENG. What are the benefits of learning this way?
TOEIC® is an English test used in more than 160 countries around the world. In Japan and South Korea, many companies use it as a guide for hiring and promotion.
The topics of the questions are all workplace and everyday situations, such as meetings, phone calls, business trips, emails, and notices. For that reason, TOEIC® scores are widely used as a guide to how well someone can understand English in business settings.
The French version of FRENG turns this type of question into French. Because you can listen to and read workplace and everyday situations in the same question format as TOEIC®, it helps you build the ability to understand business situations in French.
Can I learn French for free?
Yes. FRENG is a service that provides French learning content for free.
When starting to learn French, what should I study first?
For French, getting used to the sounds is the most efficient approach. Put reading aside for now and start with shadowing. The short sentences are built around situations you would actually encounter, so practice them as many times as you like until they become your own. You don't need to learn grammar rules first. As you listen a lot and speak out loud, you will naturally start to notice unnatural phrasing.
For vocabulary, Word Quest plays audio for each word, so you can solve them even if you can't read the letters.
Beginners can solve Part 1 (Photo questions) and Part 2 (Response questions) of Listening. Part 3 is Conversation questions and Part 4 is Announcement questions. They are harder than Parts 1 and 2, but they are essential for real conversations with French speakers, so be sure to give them a try.
The important thing is to always review after solving Part 3 and Part 4. When you reopen a question you've already solved, you can choose between "Try again" and "View translation." Pressing "View translation" plays the audio of the same question, with subtitles and translation shown at the same time. Repeating this will help it come naturally to you.
How do you practice French grammar?
Rather than just memorizing rules, find the forms within example sentences and repeatedly confirm them with short fill-in-the-blank exercises and reading comprehension. In particular, it is good to focus on practicing "adjective gender and number agreement."
How can I improve my French listening comprehension?
Listen to short audio, check the parts you could not catch in writing, and then practice the sound groupings with shadowing. Also pay attention to "liaison, enchaînement, and nasal vowels."
How do you learn to connect French spelling and pronunciation?
Listen to the audio in Listening, check the parts you couldn't catch in writing, and then speak aloud with Shadowing. You can check the same sentence repeatedly with both your ears and your eyes.
How can I remember the gender of nouns?
We recommend learning nouns together with their articles rather than on their own. Nouns you learned in Word Quest and Word Match can also be checked in Short text fill-in-the-blank.
