Why can't i use ensuite instead of puis in this sentence?
"puis fera une escale à Paris avant de prendre un autre vol pour Montpellier. "
In the examples, there is this sentence: "Ma tante est passée par la boulangerie en venant ici." In the sentence, what purpose does the "en" serve?
This page would be much more useful if it listed the conjugations.
Thank you
HI was wondering when I took the test the sentence un orgre grand comme un maison was said to be correct but, I thought grand would go before ogre.
Thanks
Nicole
it could be a strong belief so why marked wrong in favour of penser
In the song Jalousie by Angele, in saying the English question, "Who is that girl in the photo", why does she say,
"C'est qui cette fille sur la photo" rather than "Qui est cette fille sur la photo"?
Is this Walloon French, since she is from Belgium? Thank you very much.
Hi,
" D'ailleurs, ça me rappelle que Paul m'avait prêté un livre passionnant que j'ai toujours chez moi ! - Tu ne les as pas revus depuis tout ce temps ? - Non, et du coup, je n'ai pas encore pu le lui rendre ! "
In this sentence I put "je ne suis pas encore arrivé à le lui rendre !" which I think works as well?
Nick
If you translate 'and suddenly, I'd realised that I could not live without you' as 'et soudain, je m'étais rendu compte que je ne pouvais pas vivre sans toi', the past participle is corrected to 'rendue' (because it's a female speaker). But my understand was that 'compte' is the direct object in this phrase and 'me' the indirect, and that therefore the past participle is invariable.
Does Tout ce dont also have the same meanings - [everything that/ all that], or is there any additional meaning to it?? Please confirm. Also a few examples would be great.
'anything that' is also an additional meaning?
(of course that the context will differ with the inclusion of de in 'tout ce dont', than 'tout ce qui' and 'tout ce que')
