The title of this exercise is "En segway dans le parc", but I was wondering why it was not "À segway dans le parc", as I understood "en" is used with forms of transport we get inside like en train, en bus, en voiture, en kayak and en avion; but "à" is usually used for forms of transport that we ride or walk without physically entering first e.g. à pied, à vélo, à moto and à cheval; and I thought segways would logically fit into the latter category?
Hello,
So, the demonstrative pronouns in French, if I'm not mistaken, are: celui, ceux, celle, celles
While in English, they're: this, these, that, those
But if I want to translate: That looks like the car I used to drive. in French, that's Cela ressemble à la voiture que je conduisais.
Why cela and not celle ?
So, when do you actually use the french demonstrative pronouns?
I swear I hear "deux dernieres annees" I sure don't hear "nuits" Am I the only one?
Anyone know the meaning of oudoré?
It means golden according to Google translate.
in the phrase 'avec son architecture colorée.' Why is the adjective feminine when the subject is masculine ?
Is there topic on negative with "Il ya a" Can't seem to find it.
Thanks to Maarten and Alan, I had 4 responses all of which were marked as "select this as correct answer". There is ambiguity, and how do I resolve this as a learner. My reference was related to Cliffs Quick Review French 1 (ch3 under Articles). A definitive answer would be great!

Or
Un des meilleurs repas que nous ayons jamais fait?
J'ai mis le deuxième et on m'a dit que c'était juste mais le texte final met le premier.
Est-ce qu'on s'accorde donc le repas au singulier ou au pluriel dans cette construction du superlatif?
Merci!
In the final sentence why is dépeignait not given as an alternative verb. It seems more precise than représentait.
Hi, which is correct? C'est la responsabilité des enterprises de réduire les quantités de plastique mis/mises sur le Marché
