Before you start

What does A0 mean?

Inklingo uses A0 for the starting point before A1: absolute beginners who are building their first vocabulary. You don’t need a placement test or previous lessons to start Foundations.

Do I need an account for the first module?

No. You can try module 1 as a guest. Create an account when you are ready to continue so your completion is saved and available across the web and app.

Can I use the course on a computer?

Yes. The first two modules are available to free learners on the web; module 2 requires an account. Continue free starter access in the app, or use your existing Premium access for the full web course.

What should I practice after Foundations?

Try beginner French stories. Keep using audio and word meanings while you build reading confidence. You can also explore the French vocabulary library.
