 This model is suitable for anyone seeking a fluent and expressive TTS system in French.  
 Feel free to test, adapt, or improve it for your specific use case.
 
+## Usage Example
+
+Here’s how to generate speech using Chatterbox-TTS French:
+
+```python
+import torch
+import soundfile as sf
+from chatterbox.tts import ChatterboxTTS
+from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
+from safetensors.torch import load_file
+MODEL_REPO = "Thomcles/Chatterbox-TTS-French" 
+T3_CHECKPOINT_FILE = "t3_cfg.safetensors"
+device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
+model = ChatterboxTTS.from_pretrained(device=device)
+print("Downloading and applying German patch...")
+checkpoint_path = hf_hub_download(repo_id=MODEL_REPO, filename=T3_CHECKPOINT_FILE)
+t3_state = load_file(checkpoint_path, device="cpu") 
+model.t3.load_state_dict(t3_state)
+print("Patch applied successfully.")
+text = "Tief im verwunschenen Wald, wo die Bäume uralte Geheimnisse flüsterten, lebte ein kleiner Gnom namens Fips, der die Sprache der Tiere verstand."
+reference_audio_path = "/content/uitoll.mp3"
+output_path = "output_cloned_voice.wav"
+print("Generating speech...")
+with torch.inference_mode():
+    wav = model.generate(
+        text,
+        audio_prompt_path=reference_audio_path,
+        exaggeration=0.5, 
+        temperature=0.6,  
+        cfg_weight=0.3,  
+    )
+sf.write(output_path, wav.squeeze().cpu().numpy(), model.sr)
+print(f"Audio saved to {output_path}")
