Hi
The English translation of the sentence "Le jour suivant, Ali Baba retourna à la grotte" is Ali Baba returned to the cave the following day. I don't understand why you used future simple instead of passe compose? Thank you.
Why is there no "s" at the end of "quelque"? Would it ever have an "s"?
In the sentence 'Normalement, j'attendrais patiemment votre prochaine livraison, mais j'en ai besoin etc' I answered ...... mais je l'ai besoin..etc' The lesson on the use of 'en' says, 'Notice that 'en' as a pronoun can replace phrases introduced by the preposition de + [thing]/[object]/[location]. In the excercise, there is no 'de', so why 'en'?
In the first sentence I think it should be written "je ne m'attendais pas à ce que CE soit si grand". (The 2nd "ce" can be heard on the audio file, but does not appear in the text)
Can i say ‘vous allez devoir trouver’ ?
Salut! Je suis juste curieux, qu'est-ce que ça veut dire précisément que "les cloches apportent les œufs...?" Est-ce que ces cloches de Pâques deviennent vivantes et alors apportent les œufs, ou est-ce que la sonnerie des cloches font apparaître les œufs dans les jardins? Ou est-ce que c'est quelqu'autre chose entièrement? C'est fascinant! Merci beaucoup!
Hi I have two questions regarding the phrase 'on n'est pas secoués dans tous les sens'.
1. why is there an 'e' on the end of secoué? I would have thought that it should be the third person singular of 'on'.
2. What is the meaning of 'secoué dans tous les sens'? Does it mean 'shaken about all over the place'?
