Sproochentest
The Sproochentest is the Luxembourg language exam used in the citizenship process. Candidates need A2 oral expression and B1 listening comprehension. The most efficient preparation plan is to understand the exam format, practise everyday speaking topics, learn a safe picture-description structure, and use timed mock practice before the real test.
Understand the Luxembourg Sproochentest, the oral A2 and listening B1 sections, and how to prepare with topic, picture, and mock-test practice.

The exam has two scored parts: A2 oral expression and B1 listening comprehension. It lasts approximately 10 minutes for the oral section. Candidates pass with a 50% average across both sections, or 50% on oral expression alone.
The exam is designed for people who need to show Luxembourgish ability as part of the citizenship journey. The public-facing structure is built around two different skill targets: spoken interaction at A2 level and listening comprehension at B1 level.
That split matters for preparation. You do not need the same strategy for both parts, and most candidates benefit from separating factual exam understanding from actual speaking practice.
For the oral part, the highest-return work is repeated practice with everyday topics, short opinion answers, and picture descriptions in a stable order. For the listening part, you need regular exposure to spoken Luxembourgish and familiarity with test-style tasks.
LëtzPass is built to be strongest on speaking preparation: topic questions, picture prompts, structured drills, and mock-style speaking practice with AI feedback.
This guide keeps the full exam funnel visible, but the product positioning stays honest: use the platform primarily to get better at the speaking side of the Sproochentest.

The public Sproochentest format is focused on oral expression and listening comprehension, not on a separate writing paper.
Start with oral structure and mock speaking practice, because many candidates lose points through hesitation, weak organisation, and too little detail.
