Why this prompt works

This prompt uses role-playing by assigning Mistral specific expertise in rhetoric, guiding the generation towards a professional oratory register. The four-part structure imposes a classic narrative framework (exordium, narration, argumentation, peroration) that the model can methodically follow. The detailed contextual parameters reduce ambiguity and allow Mistral to precisely calibrate the tone, length, and vocabulary.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long a speech should I ask Mistral for for a 10-minute talk?

A speaker averages 130 words per minute in French. For a 10-minute speech, ask for around 1,300 words. Specify this constraint in your prompt so that Mistral calibrates the length correctly. You can also state the desired duration directly and let the model adjust the text volume, but always check the result by reading it aloud with a timer.

How can I adapt the tone of the speech generated by Mistral to my personal style?

Provide Mistral with an excerpt from a speech or text you've already written, adding to the prompt: 'Here is an example of my writing style: [excerpt]. Adapt the speech to match this tone and voice.' You can also specify concrete preferences: use of formal or informal register, level of formality, use of humor, or expressions you frequently use.

Can Mistral write a bilingual speech or one with passages in another language?

Yes, Mistral handles multilingualism very well. Specify in your prompt which passages should be in another language and the context for this alternation. For example: 'Include a quote in English followed by its French translation' or 'Start with a greeting in Arabic before continuing in French.' Mistral will naturally adapt the transitions between languages while maintaining the speech's coherence.

Astuce : avant de lancer la rédaction, demandez au modèle de générer une liste de 5 accroches candidates, choisissez la plus adaptée, puis faites développer le discours. Pour éviter des métaphores génériques, précisez des références culturelles ou des exemples propres à votre organisation. Autre variante utile : ajoutez une contrainte de longueur par section (ex. 20% accroche, 40% corps, etc.).
