>>French grammar is really not that complicated, the language is only daunting because of its complex spelling system which is debatably more complex than English (I say debatably because I'm an American and, to me, French is more complex, although to a Frenchman surely English may seem more complex).
And I say debatably too because, for all its mute letters, I can guess most spelling combinations with some 80 rules... while for English I can only guess consonants around 95% and vowels 60% of the time. French has no rules about mute letters, and English has only one schwa rule, but in this aspect they are really close competitors...
(I haven't heard of writing bees, why?)

I don't know about French dictees, but English spelling bees are always full of weird foreign words that no one ever uses.
