In this article, a reflection on one of the often occurring difficulties in learning foreign languages,
which is the fear of writing, will be proposed. The author presents a given research problem in
the context of the process of teaching-learning French as the second foreign language by adults.
In order to collect the research corps, a Polish-language version of the questionnaire regarding
anxiety of writing by Cheng (2004) - Second Language Writing Anxiety Inventory (SLWAI) will be
applied further to the analysis of personal opinions of research participants of the issues taken
up.
