What is Parle?
Parle is a pronunciation-first iOS course for English-speaking beginners. It combines 120 ordered A0-A2 speaking missions, 35 core French sounds, reviewed model audio, recording, role-play, progress evidence, and optional AI Coach practice.
What does Parle mean in French, and how is it pronounced?
Parle is pronounced /paʁl/, approximately ‘parl’ with a light French R; the final e is silent. It is a form of parler (‘to speak’) and can mean ‘speak!’ as an informal command, fitting the App's speaking-first focus.
Is Parle suitable for complete beginners?
Yes. The path starts at A0 with greetings, introductions, essential needs, numbers, and short survival exchanges before moving toward practical A2 conversations.
Does Phrase Match score my French accent?
No. Phrase Match reports which words in the model phrase speech recognition detected. It can help you choose what to repeat, but it is not an accent, pronunciation-quality, fluency, proficiency, or CEFR score.
Does Parle provide an official A2 certificate?
No. The A0-A2 path and stage checks organize observable speaking practice. They are not an official CEFR certification.
