A complete, story-based French course, powered by Anki and built on French in Action. Follow the story, learn the words you'll actually use, and remember them for good with native-speaker audio.
The foundation to understand native French and have real conversations.
Every sentence comes from the acclaimed French in Action course, so you learn French through a story you're actually watching.
Every sentence recorded by native speakers, so you train your ears — and your pronunciation — on real French.
A complete path from your first words to confident French — vocabulary and essential grammar, not just word lists.
Cards follow the course lesson by lesson, starting simple and building gradually so nothing feels overwhelming.
This course is built on French in Action, the acclaimed French immersion series. You'll follow Robert, a young American newly arrived in Paris, and Mireille, the French student he meets by chance in the courtyard of the Sorbonne — their story unfolds across the cafés, families, and streets of Paris, in the French people really speak.
Your step-by-step guide to studying smarter. Build a routine that sticks, use Anki the right way, and make real, consistent progress — without burning out. Yours with every package.

Verified reviews from learners using the French course.
“These cards are fantastic for use with the French in Action series. The FIA series and workbooks move at quite a fast pace, delivering tons of information, so to have these cards to practice and re-practice and be tested on my retention and ability to recall or translate into French from English is fantastic. Highly recommended if you are serious in following the complete FIA course.”
“I've been using the deck for a few months now and it's been valuable help when studying the French in Action course. The audio files are especially good because they seem to be from a real native speaker.”
“I have been using srs decks for two years and having a deck for French in action is great.”

“Excellent deck and support”

“Hi team,
The desk quality is great. I'm going through it. However, I thought the final desk would cover the whole French in Action course (52 lessons). The current final desk has over 200 cards, while you mentioned that the final desk will have more than 4000 desks. Will there be any updates to the desk soon? If so, will I get the updated version as well? because I have already paid for the desk at the current state of 2000 cards.
The cards are super helpful so far with great audio quality so I really want to have the full desk of French in Action.”
Hello Linh,
thank you for your positve feedback! The deck has been completed now. It covers all 52 lessons of French in Action with over 5000 cards. If you purchase any of our products, you'll get access to future updates and e-mail notifications about them.
Best regards,
Christian
“I have been using srs decks for two years and having a deck for French in action is great.”
“The first few lessons (about 350 cards) are available on Ankiweb.net and I blasted through them in about 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to working through the rest of the ~2000 cards from here!”
It's a complete, dialogue-driven course. You follow the French in Action storyline through real conversations, on a structured path that builds from your first words upward, delivered as an Anki deck so you get the power of spaced repetition.
French in Action is an acclaimed French immersion series, created at Yale by Pierre Capretz. The deck works on its own, but it's designed to pair with the show: watch a lesson, then lock in its language with the cards. French in Action is freely available to watch online, so the two work beautifully together at no extra cost.
Absolutely. Anki is a free, straightforward flashcard app (a small one-time fee on iPhone), and we show you exactly how to set it up and import your course in minutes.
