Why is heroes singular Les heroes vont why is it va
Hi Angela,
I have found the kwiz question -
so 'va' is correct because as Maarten correctly states, the word 'héros' has an -s in the singular form.
So the important word was 'le' and not 'les' in this particular case.
But good question!
Angela,
I can’t see the example you are referencing but the correct expressions would be either ‘ le héros va … ‘ or ‘ les héros vont .. ‘.
The masculine noun ‘ héros ‘ has an ‘h aspiré’, and ends in terminal ‘ s ‘ in singular and plural form.
The feminine forms are ‘ l’héroïne va… ‘ or ‘ les héroïnes vont ..‘, as ‘ héroïne ‘ starts with an h muët, and does not have a terminal ‘ s ‘ in singular form.
If you think there is a mistake somewhere, best to report directly from the test, or separately to support.

Bonjour Amanda !
I've now updated the sound file of the example to indeed reflect that it's a question :)
Merci et à bientôt !
Please repost your question. It isn't showing.

Lost. At A1 level, I get quizzes in English, demanding English answers. I assume I'm being asked to guess the French equivalent. Totally clueless. Really vexing.

The translation of "On" was We. , not she or he. so how is the conjugation Vas?
Hi Meher,
I can confirm that it would be -
On va
or
Nous allons
The translation of "On" was We. , not she or he. so how is the conjugation Vas?

How do we read the year in a date? how do we speak it?
There are two ways to say a year in French:
- you either read it as a normal number:
1820 = mille huit cent vingt (one thousand eight hundred and twenty)
- or you divide in the middle:
1820 = dix-huit *cent* vingt (eighteen hundred twenty)
I hope that's helpful!
À bientôt !
