Sproochentest preparation

Practise the Sproochentest under real conditions.

Mock exams built to the exact format of the test, and detailed feedback on your speaking, criterion by criterion. You know precisely where you stand and what is still costing you points.

Built for candidates who already have some Luxembourgish (A1–A2) and an exam to prepare for. Practice material is in Luxembourgish; instructions and feedback are in French or English.

The exam in 30 seconds

Two tests, one threshold, one compensation rule.

The Sproochentest is the Luxembourgish language exam required in the naturalisation procedure (amended law of 8 March 2017 on Luxembourg nationality). It is run by the INL.

AusdrockLevel A2≈ 10 minutes

Test 1 — Speaking

In front of two examiners, in two parts: an interview on a topic you choose from two options, then the description of a picture you choose from three. Speaking is marked against eight criteria.

HéierverständnisLevel B1≈ 25–35 minutes

Test 2 — Listening comprehension

Three audio documents: a radio news item, a conversation between two people, then an exchange or a talk on a defined topic. Each recording is followed by a multiple-choice questionnaire.

Threshold50%Compensation

The pass rule

You need at least half the points in the speaking test. Below that, listening can compensate: the exam is passed if the average of the two tests reaches 50%.

How it works

Three steps, from where you are to exam day.

01

Placement test

About 15 minutes: one recording of each type, one picture description and a short interview. You get an estimate for each test and a clear starting point.

02

Intensive plan

A calendar of 20–30 minute sessions running to your exam date, weighted towards your weak points. Skip or reorder a session and the plan recalculates.

03

Mock exams with feedback

The whole exam, in the real order and the real timings. At the end: an estimate per test, criterion-by-criterion feedback, your corrected transcript and three concrete actions.

Speaking feedback

The report you get after every speaking task.

This is the difference between "I think I manage" and "I know exactly what costs me points". Every recording is marked against the eight criteria used in the speaking test, with a transcript of what you actually said, the corrected version, and the three things to do next.

The eight criteria

  • Repertoire

    Enough vocabulary for the work topic; little variation beyond the most common words.

  • Use of basic grammatical structures

    The dative after prepositions of place is not yet stable (an, bei, mat, op).

  • Fluency

    Steady delivery, with two long pauses while searching for a word.

  • Clarity

    Clear pronunciation; long vowels are held properly.

  • Completion of the tasks

    Every question was answered, but two answers were too short for the task set.

  • Coherence

    Ideas follow on from each other; connectors are limited to "an" and "awer".

  • Ability to make yourself understood

    The examiner never had to ask you to repeat.

  • Interaction

    You answer, then wait for the next question. Interaction is marked: react, follow up, ask a question back.

Corrected extract

Examiner: Wat maacht Dir bäi der Aarbecht?

What you said

Ech schaffen an eng Bäckerei zu Esch. Ech maachen d’Brout all Moie an ech verkafen och d’Kuch. Ech hunn dës Aarbecht viru dräi Joer ugefaangen.

Corrected version

Ech schaffen an enger Bäckerei zu Esch. Ech maache d’Brout all Moie an ech verkafen och Kuch. Ech hunn dës Aarbecht virun dräi Joer ugefaangen.

  • an eng Bäckerei → an enger Bäckerei. After "an" with a location meaning, Luxembourgish takes the dative: enger Bäckerei.
  • d’Kuch → Kuch. "Kuch" is masculine (de Kuch); with no determiner here, simply say "ech verkafen och Kuch".
  • viru dräi Joer → virun dräi Joer. The Eifel rule: the final "n" is kept before d, t, n, z, h and before a vowel.

Three actions for your next session

  1. Ten minutes a day for a week on the dative after an, op, bei, mat — using sentences from the "work" topic.
  2. Aim for three sentences per answer: the fact, a reason, an example. Two of your answers were a single sentence.
  3. Redo two interviews on "work and profession" and compare the two recordings a week apart.

Frequently asked

What candidates ask us.

Is LetzTest the INL platform?

No. LetzTest is a private preparation platform, independent of the INL and of the Ministère de la Justice. Registration, the exam itself and the certificate are handled by the INL alone. Our scores are practice estimates.

What level do I need to start?

An A1–A2 base in Luxembourgish is recommended: LetzTest does not start from zero and is not a substitute for a language course. The placement test tells you where you stand in the first session and the plan adapts to what you can already do.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. The platform is built mobile-first, including microphone recording in the browser (Safari on iOS, Chrome on Android). A headset with a microphone noticeably improves the quality of the feedback.

What happens after six months?

Access ends on the date shown in your account. There is no automatic renewal and no later charge. Your results and history are kept: if you buy access again later, you pick up where you left off.

Can I get an invoice?

Yes. An invoice with Luxembourg VAT is issued for every purchase and stays downloadable from your account. For a company purchase, enter the company name and VAT number at checkout.

Which languages is the interface in?

French and English at launch; Portuguese and German are planned. Practice material — audio, interviews, pictures to describe — is always in Luxembourgish: only the interface, instructions and feedback are translated.

Start with the demo, decide afterwards.

The free demo gives you one listening task and one picture description with the full feedback report. No payment is required to try it.
