What is "dialang"

DIALANG is an online diagnostic system designed to assess a person's proficiency in 14 European languages. Competences tested are reading, writing, listening, grammar and vocabulary, while speaking is excluded for technical reasons.

DIALANG was designed primarily for European citizens to assess their language abilities in adherence to Europe’s Common European Framework of Reference – CEFR – as a basis for determining language proficiency. The CEFR is a widely recognized framework used to describe and measure the language proficiency level of a learner in a particular language.

Dialang was funded by the SOCRATES programme and by some 25 institutions, largely universities, throughout the European Union. Dialang is explained in the Appendix C, pages 226-243 of the CEFR official document.
