I'm sorry, but this is a terrible example sentence. Who on earth would refer to walking their dog as "taking a walk with" their dog? The dog has no independence. It doesn't join you for a walk the same way your friend Julie might.
The example sentence should be changed to:
Anne et Antoine promènent leur chien.
You can have the same answer choices, but the correct answer would be "Anne and Antoine are walking their dog." Which is a sentence you might say in real life, as opposed to "They're taking a walk with their dog" which no one said ever.
I want to know the affirmative impératif, negative impératif, affirmative pronominal interrogative and negative pronominal interrogative form of future proche.
How do I say there will be sun tomorrow?
The dictée is missing "mélange dans un moule".
J'ai trois soeurs. Does this change to Je n'ai pas trois soeurs or je n'ai pas de soeurs. If the latter, then do all numbers change to de??
I know that this is not a question related to grammar or vocabulary, but I don't see where else to address the problem since there is no link to report an issue.
While doing this exercise it skipped forward before I could give myself a grade. Because of this, my score was five points lower. Not a big deal, but a little discouraging, since I would have given myself a close to perfect score. Just wondering why this happens sometimes?
Après _être rentrée_chez elle, Martine a fait une sieste.
After going back home, Martine had a nap
Elles rentrent après que le bus les a déposées.
''They go home after the bus has dropped them off.'' ?
Why does one sentence require ‘chez elle’ and the other not?
Why is it le nez but ses lèvres?
Personally, I think "quelques chevaux" is perfectly alright to say, whereas "un couple de chevaux" might be a little closer to "a pair of horses"?
But certainly, "quelques chevaux" is not wrong? Maybe using "couple" here is English creeping into the language? or even French Canadian?
Also "clôture" could be used instead of "barrière". I hear people saying "J'ai hâte de (faire ceci et cela)" all the time, in the sense "I am excited" (to do something), but I think one has be to be really careful and really sure of oneself before attempting "je suis excitée". And sure, maybe you could say a child or a dog is "surexcité" but would you say the L'homme est surexcité? Haha, not so sure about that!
