The participants in the 2025 edition are in Ivory Coast where the traditional preparation trip takes place.
This Thursday, they took the Miss France general knowledge exam.
It was enhanced with a dictation, the text of which we offer you.
Currently in Ivory Coast for the preparation trip, the thirty candidates for the Miss France election took the general culture test this Thursday. Among the tests, the young women who all dream of succeeding Ève Gilles were entitled for the second year in a row to a dictation. You too can test your spelling level with this text imagined by the author by Sonia Salhi and whose themes are the ball and elegance. In the text, two references have been inserted alluding to the host country.
The ball of words
It is in the land of Éburnie (1) that our beauty queens met. A few kilometers from what we call “the pearl of the lagoons” (2), walks and excursions will be an opportunity to discover each other and share dreams and hopes together, the beginnings of a year of celebration(s) and 'shard(s) (3). Strike a pose, place your voice or cultivate the art of conversation: everyone will be keen to improve, whatever their talents. Then the long-awaited evening will come, where each miss will compete in elegance in all kindness. In a farandole of dresses twirling here and there, taffeta, poplin and organza will sway to the rhythm of waltzes and other quadrilles. It is then that Venus and refinement will combine to reveal to the eyes of the world the woman who has delighted the hearts of the French.
(1) Terre d'Éburnie: name formerly given to Côte d'Ivoire.
(2) The pearl of the lagoons: circumlocution designating the city of Abidjan.
(3) Of celebration(s) and brilliance(s): We will accept the singular or the plural.
