La vraie vieReal Life
Stories about real life for beginners, teens and adults, in simple French, from A1 to A2. Free to read in the browser, each with a translation beside every paragraph.
About the series
Short French stories about real life for teenagers and adults near the start: work, money, love, family, health, moving country and the city. Each story has four short chapters, a person who wants something and an ending worth reaching, with a translation beside every paragraph.
The collection is graded. The A1 stories use short sentences, everyday words that come back again and again, and the present tense. The A2 stories are a step up: they are told in the past, with longer sentences, plans, comparisons and advice, and the situations of everyday life, from renting a room to a visit to the doctor.
The first story of each level is free; the others are for subscribers.
