Learning French Through Code: My Journey with “Le Mot”

<p>In 2014, I embarked on a fantastic journey to learn French, a beautiful and intricate language, full of nuance and romance. I even lived in France for a year, immersing myself in the language and culture. Yet, once I left, I felt my hard-earned linguistic skills start to slowly fade away. As a developer by profession, I knew I could merge my love for coding and my need to keep my French alive. Thus, the French version of Wordle, &ldquo;<a href="https://lemot.fr/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Le Mot</a>,&rdquo; was born.</p> <h1>Finding The Word</h1> <p>Creating Le Mot wasn&rsquo;t just about keeping my French language skills sharp. It was a testament to the power of gamified learning. There&rsquo;s substantial research showing that using a language daily significantly improves language retention. Simply put, we remember more of what we use, and a daily habit of a French word game seemed like an effective way to exercise my linguistic muscles.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@flatoy/learning-french-through-code-my-journey-with-le-mot-15a4b2f84571"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
