Pluri French: the whole language, not just the verbs. (Formerly Conjugately.) Four senses. One answer. Most apps give you a list to read. Pluri French gives you four ways in at once: you read a real French sentence, hear it spoken aloud, say your answer and hold the mic to focus. All at once, every question, so it sticks. SPEAK FRENCH FROM DAY ONE (Pro) After every course unit, put the language to work in a short spoken conversation with realistic French voices. See the new words first, hear each line, answer aloud from an English cue and get a reply in French. Nearly right still counts: the conversation helps you finish the sentence. AI WHY, YOUR AI TUTOR (Pro) Get one wrong and AI WHY explains every option, A to D, then answers your follow-up questions. Read the explanation or listen to it in your choice of two tutor voices. YOUR TRUE NORTH: CEFR-STYLE EXAMS (Pro) Custom CEFR-style practice tests at A1, A2 and B1 show where your French stands on the European scale, and where it can take you: travel, study or jobs with French. Pass a test and earn its badge. These are practice tests in the format of official exams, not an official DELF certificate. ANSWER ALOUD WITH MASTERS MIC (Pro) Hold the button, say the answer in French and see what the app heard. Speech is checked on your iPhone when French is available offline; otherwise Apple's speech service is used. Pluri French doesn't record or keep your audio. Stuck? Tap Show A–D. NEW WORDS, YOURS TO KEEP Meet each conversation's new words first, then find them in your Vocab. Vocab checks with picture clues bring words back until they stick, with a sound guide for pronunciation. YOUR VERB, YOUR QUIZ Spin difficulty, verb and tense, or tap Choose All for Me. Free at every level. LEVEL UP, UNIT BY UNIT Beginner, Novice, Elementary and Intermediate A and B take you from être, avoir and faire to the imparfait and the plus-que-parfait. Graded mini-courses end in a Final Level Exam, and you earn coins as you learn to spend on exams. THE PLURI GUARANTEE Pass your level in 12 months of Pro, or Pro is free from then on. Conditions: conjugately.com/guarantee PLURI PRO Build Your Quiz is free at every level. Pluri Pro unlocks the conversations, AI WHY, Masters Mic, the CEFR-style exams, the mini-courses beyond Beginner and the Final Level Exams above Beginner. • Monthly or annual auto-renewing subscription, each with a 2-week free trial • Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, after any free trial ends • Your subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; renewal is charged within 24 hours before the period ends • Manage or cancel any time in your App Store account settings.
