I don't want to be pedantic but the sentence "A few months ago, I worked from my house for three weeks. ." the best answer was "Il y a quelques mois, j'ai travaillé de chez moi pendant trois semaines." the final para however reads "Il y a quelques mois, j'ai fait du télétravail pendant trois semaines." (A few months ago, I was teleworking for three weeks.) I realise there are many ways of saying the same thing but this was not given as the best option and seems to be different to the text being translated. It might be time for me to have a break!
Are we to translate "smells good" or "Smells the rose?"
Why in this sentence is both 'lui' and 'le' needed? As isn't "le" meaning "her" here because "ventre" is a body part?
The same thing with the sentence "Le vent vivifiant lui fouettait le visage"
Don't take antibiotics for a cold!!!! :)
Why is it Marc l'a regardée and not Marc l'a regardé. Surely the latter is feminine? Thankyou
Could someone explain the rule for describing who someone is; i.e. why does 'she is my wife' translate as c'est ma femme? - "it is my wife'!
Thanks.
Why did it change from "on" to "nous" in the last sentence? Is it just more common with commands?
Should “nous nous sommes impatientés” actually be “nous nous sommes impatientées” because the “nous” refers to Noémie (female) and her “famille” (a feminine word)?
J’adore Kwiziq depuis que je l’ai découvert et je remercie toute l’équipe pour leur travail acharné. MAIS je m’étonne beaucoup de ce que les fautes faites par les contributeurs ne soient pas corrigées par quelqu’un de plus compétent. Par exemple ce matin, j’ai lu avec horreur la phrase: » je seraiS rentré chez moi quand je t’appeLerai. ». Je m’inquiète pour ceux qui ne sont pas français.
