Merci bcp 

While the lesson is clear that the le passé composé is used here to use depuis for negation, I'm not sure how to ask the question that leads to this response: 

For example: When was the last time you your mother saw you? 

- Is it: Quelle était la dèrniere fois/Depuis quand ta mere t'a vu/te vois?

In either the case the answer would be in passé composé: for instance: Elle ne m'a pas vu depuis longtemps

Thanks!

I notice in the phrase 'était apparue gracieusement sur cet étrange engin' the adverb is placed after the participle, not the conjugated verb. Am I right in thinking adverbs normally go directly after the conjugated verb ?

Bonjour!

I was wondering when listening to the audio of how to say the verb acheterais and acheterait to me they do sound the same am I correct to make that assumption?

I also wonder if the letter r is always silent as well as the letter L?

Thanks

This appeared in a test question on Laura's site.

(If I was rich, I could travel a lot.).

Is this grammatically correct? No!

Shame!!!

Hi,

Can someone please explain what this means? Although I have known French for decades, it really didn't seem to make any sense. To be honest, I am very surprised this is level A1, as even I struggled with it and I got really confused when trying to complete the dictation, especially with this sentence.

Thanks

Hello, after adding a subject to my notebook and then reviewing the notebook lesson for that subject, it would be helpful to immediately be able to do some practice exercises on this subject alone, without having to do a kwizz covering all your dashboard subjects. Is this (getting exercises for self-selected subjects) possible?

Bonjour - Can someone explain the grammaire for  "je vois l'architecte arriver"?  Why is "arriver" an infinitive?  Merci!
