French lectures and seminars, transcribed properly
French (français): European, Canadian (Québécois) and African French are transcribed by the same model. Liaisons and elisions (l', qu', j') are written out in standard orthography with accents intact.
Lectures in particular: Timestamps map every concept back to the minute it was taught. Study notes, revision summaries and a searchable course archive.
