French language Q&A Forum

In the test above, for the translation of "Marie achète du café.", I chose "Marie buys some coffee", due to the lesson above. However, the correct answer is "Marie buys coffee". Why is this?

this is not in conditionnel 

But this is:

Au cas où vous auriez faim, je vous ai fait un sandwich.

The recommended translation for 'tiny hairy faces seemed worried' is 'de minuscules visages hirsutes avaient l'air inquiet' - inquiet agreeing with air rather than the subject visages.

Is it not also an option that it agree with visages?

I am looking in Larousse which says that the adjective following air agrees with the subject of the sentence if that subject is a thing and, often, with the subject if it is a person ('Elle a l'air sérieuse').

In the phrase, "Enfin, après vous être imprégnés de tous les paysages somptueux,", I don't understand how "vous être imprégnés" using the infinitive in the French corresponds to the English translation, "after soaking up". Is "être" a typo where "êtes" should have been used instead?

This is my first time making a comment! I read the text as an Aussie at the beach and used experience to gain understanding e.g. Serviette = a beach towel, glacière = cool box (dictionary meaning) but more likely to be understood as an Esky for me and rayures= stripes. 

Bonjour !

A fun exercise and review of "les boissons".

Just a note that I had to listen to the phrase, "une bonne tisane" several times because it also sounded to me as if the speaker is saying, "le" instead of "une". Because, I know that "tisane" is feminine I was finally able to hear the "une". But, it wasn't clear, especially for an exercise at this listening level. I think that part of the problem is that he is pronouncing the "e" as a schwa sound - an extra syllable like they do in the South of France. 

Merci !

The translation in English is "but I'm not against the idea" - why is "the idea" omitted? 

Just wondering why the passé composé is used in this phrase. Thanks for your response.
