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.
I tried to translate 'It's not very nice of her', but I got the same response for 'It's not very nice of him' ( Ce ne pas tres gentil de sa part). Is this a generic response regardless of gender?
Il va leur téléphoner.He's going to telephone themIl va appeler ses parents. -> Il va les appeler.He's going to call his parents. -> He's going to call them.
In these above examples, why are both the direct and indirect object pronouns placed in between the verbs instead of in front of both of them?
Merci.
Hello, do I understand correctly that en is used here because there are two object pronouns? Pierre m'en a offert.
Why is it quarter to seven and not 7:45 PM?
Is the singular 'différent' a mistake ?
Can I assume this can also be used for its literal translation? EX: "When are we going to all get together?" "I don't know. When we open the presents?"
If, as mentioned, most people use the subjonctif after "après que", wouldn't it be odd to a francophone to hear the passé composé?
Après que je SUIS allé????
Even school teachers would say " Après que je SOIS allé"
