"Il fait trop chaud pour une sauce bolognaise!"

I spent a good couple of minutes trying to figure out what she was saying in the middle. I ended up submitting "Il fait trop chaud bon sauce bolognaise!" "Pour une" obviously makes more sense, but did anyone else have trouble making out those two words? It certainly sounded like "bon" to me.

Bonjour Michael,

Thank you for your feedback! I listened to the audio and I could hear "Il fait trop chaud pour une sauce bolognaise!"

At Kwiziq, we tend to adapt the speed of the recordings to the level of the text itself, in order to make the whole exercise a good practise of that level. Try to listen to it several times. Don't pressure yourself into getting it right the first time. Once you know what is being said, go over it again. Repeat until you can understand every word. It's a painstaking process, but in the end it will pay off.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
