Bonjour!
Will this be the negation of the following?
Simple tense : n'en + [verb] pas+ [number]
Close Future : n' aller + en pas+ [infinitive] + [number]
Compound tense : n'en + [auxiliary] pas+ [past participle] + [number]
Merci beaucoup pour votre aide :)
I don't understand when to use dont or que.
Is there somewhere I can find the number of French topics covered on Kwiziq per CEFR level?
Bonjour,
With regards to Cher Matt, chère Kate. If you are are writing a letter or a card and it's to both of them, could you default to the masculine version and say Cher Matt et Kate?
Merci
Hello, Why can't we use admettre? j'ai admis ma defaite....
I am trying why the woman's male partner addresses her as "tu" in one sentence, then as "vous" in the next sentence. Would please explain why?
Why is "de" necessary before "l'or" in this sentence since we're speaking of gold in a general sense?
Also, the prompt asked for "At night" but my translation "La nuit" was corrected to "Le soir". Shouldn't this be for "In the evening"? Thank you for your help!
How would you translate the sentence, "Wine, we don't drink much of it." I wasn't sure about "Le vin, ..." so I asked Google Translate, which said it should be "Du vin, ..." But Duolingo marked that wrong and said it should be, "Le vin, ..." Which is correct? "Du vin, ..." actually feels more correct to me, because what you're really saying is, "On the subject of wine, we..." And wouldn't that be, "Au sujet du vin, nous ..." ? (Sorry, I don't know how to classify this type of sentence.)
In the lecture, you have the following three sentences
Mes amis, merci à tous d'être venus.
Sarah, merci d'être venue.
Paul, merci d'être venu.
In all these three sentences, "Mes amis", "Sarah", and "Paul" are NOT the objects of the verb "venir", so even they are proceeds of the verb, why should the verb venir have to in agreement with "Mes amis", "Sarah", and "Paul"?
