Are you marking down for lack of full stops?

I am unable to see why I should have scored only 5 out of 60 in this exercise, unless you expect me to guess where full stops, commas and exclamation marks go. This is impossible to know when only short excerpts are given by actors with slow, flat voices!

This question relates to:French dictation exercise "Daytime or nighttime?"

This exercise is self graded. Since it is often difficult to know what the punctuation is, I wouldn't worry about it if yours doesn't match.

Hope this helps.

Bonne continuation.
