Nous nous intéressons au sport. Nous nous yintéressons
How would you say this in first person singular?
Je m’intéresse au sport. Je m’y intéresse. Is this correct?
Why do we say "folle aventure" even when "a" is a vowel?
This question was found on a C1 test. The answer that was provided was: Nous avons ouvert les fenêtres de peur qu'il n'ait une fuite de gaz.
My problem is with the use of the word might. Might means may be, could be, which suggests the use of pouvoir, de peur qu'il ne puisse y avoir une fuite de gaz. When translating the answer that was given, I would say: We opened the windows out of fear there was a gas leak. No might is needed.
Hi,
In the sentence 'On avait alors,ouvert les rideaux pour découvrir, éberlués..etc'
Why is 'éberlués' not singular to agree with'on'.
Is it because plurality is implied?
Is there a lesson on this to clarify?
Thanks
Why is there a 'le' between 'tu' and veuilles in this sentence 'C'est comme ça, que tu le veuilles ou pas' instead of just que tu veuilles.
Merci d'avoir écrit cette histoire palpitant! Plus, svp!!
I get a bit confused when, due to the speaker being female, we do/do not add an “e” to the past participle. Here, for instance, I was expecting “vue”.
Can “Ça marche géneralement plutôt bien” ( quite well) be rendered as assez bien? I e would assez bien and plutôt bien be interchangable in above sentence?
One of he correct answers to "We're going to have to hurry then!" was - "- Nous allons devoir nous dépêcher alors ! " Shouldn't that be nous se dépêcher? Or nous nous dépêcher? Se dépêcher = to hurry, dépêcher = to dispatch?
