I came across this Q/A
Mes parents vivent ________ Languedoc-Roussillon
The only answer accepted is dans le Languedoc-Roussillon yet I have seen numerous instances en Languedoc-Roussillon cited in many august sources.
I will reference only one from INSEE:
"La pauvreté en Languedoc-Roussillon" - www.insee.fr/fr/statistiques/1894450
Is INSEE wrong?
Tom
I chose 'you used to come to see me every week'.
it was marked incorrect and the correct answer was ' you used to come and see me every week'.
voir means to see and there is no 'et' in the sentence
Please explain why this is correct. I couldn't find an answer in my research.
thanks
In this lesson all questions seem to end at a low point, while in the si-lesson, all questions end at a high point. Isn't the latter intonation pattern the correct form for questions in French?
I lost marks more for the wrong word or phrase rather than the wrong grammer. Most of the grammar details for each section I had got right or nearly. I don't know if there is any way of helping us to know or guess the correct form of words.
It's all good practice though, so thanks.
When do you use this construct? I see it in the example.
Bonjour Madame,
I was attempting this quiz on this link- https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/my-languages/french/tests/take/1768714 but was unable to get the last sentence.
- Alors nous devons compter sur ceux qui se battent à nos côtés et que je suis fier d’appeler mes collègues.
Why ‘que’ has been used? Can’t dont be used to mean ‘of whom’?
Merci d’avance !
