French language Q&A Forum

other than le jeudi prochain, I thought I saw somewhere that there was a way in French to be more specific. For some reason something like le quinzième comes to mind.  Can anyone clarify this for me? Thanks, Ken

“trois-cent-quarante    three hundred and forty”

However, in the lesson “Expressing large numbers -thousands/millions/billions - in French” the description begins with:

“Up to neuf cent quatre-vingt-dix-neuf [choses] (999 [things])”       

Which example is correct? Should there be hyphens between all parts of the number, or just some of them?

Thank you.

Please can you explain this lesson.  Even the examples don't seem to fit the explanation

Penser que + indicative ne pas

Penser que + subjunctive

Will the un change to d' in the negative form? 

If you can say it is seven o'clock at night, sept heures du soir, why can't you say seven o'clock in the morning, sept heures du matin?.......Thirza

You explain that following au cas où, you would be tempted to use the subjunctive, but must use the conditional, but you do not say why?

Hello everyone, 

So, I do know that when it comes to emotions, you're going to use the imparfait. But what about if it's a one-time thing? For example: I saw her yesterday at the supermarket and she was very upset. 

It's a one-time thing and maybe it lasts a little bit, and she'll be over it quickly. Would you still use the imparfait?
