The second half to this one is just too fast!

You really need to get some kind of speed adjustment to these "beginners" exercises I am get frustrated with them. Lines like: "Il y a aussi des nuages noirs dans le ciel" and "donc je pense qu'un orage se prépare" and just too fast. I was feeling happy with myself until I got to the second part and the only reason why I couldn't get them was because of speed!

And yes I will log this with support again.

Thank you

I agree, the sentences are spoken too quickly. Some of the sentences are too long for those of us who are still at a basic level.

My grammar level is at between B2 and C1 and I only started working on my listening a month ago. With more understanding of how the language is structured and phrased, I don't find the A1 speed too fast. As a matter of fact, everyday French is even faster with lots of 'casual' vocabulary and omission of sounds.

there should be a facility to slow the speed down
