French language Q&A Forum

I would like to know why the last phrase is in the present "c'est avec des larmes" when the rest of the text is in the past. I have seen the present used for obituaries, but on those occasions the present is used throughout the text, not just on one occasion. Est-ce qu'il y a quelqu'un qui peut m'expliquer?

Thanks for all these lessons!

ta ou ton acquisition

the 4 min video with Jennifer states "Use il est with an adjective".

It completley ignores the other 50% of the rule, when you use C'est with an adjective

Dear Team,

Suggestion for the page

Avoir in Futur Simple + voulu / pu / dû [past participles]

As I can see with all the examples the formula seems to be

Avoir in Futur Simple + voulu / pu / dû [past participles] + infinitive

Unless there is a context where an infinitive doesn't follow vouloir, pouvoir & devoir.

Thanks for all your lesson. Keep up the great work.

Regards

Ignatius

I understood from the lesson that one could say,

Qu'est-ce que c'est la Sorbonne? or Qu'est-ce que la Sorbonne? but the answer of the quiz gives the first answer as wrong and the second correct? Have I missed something or are they both correct?

"Contre-la-montre" - what a great word!

Sentance was given Quand vous y êtes retourné whereas the correct is Quand vous y êtes retournés
