legumes de soleil

Quels sont les legumes de soleil ? J'ai cherche partout, mais je n'ai pas trouve cette phrase. Tous les legumes ont besoin de soleil, donc je me demande si ces legumes sont des legumes d'ete, peut-etre ?

Merci !

Font aussi?

Salut! Is it incorrect to say ils font aussi instead of ils font également? The alternate option was ils fabriquent aussi, but font aussi was marked incorrect. Wondering if there is a reason for that or is if acceptable?

"Of them"

One of the Kwizzes had "Achètes-en deux ou trois." for which the answer was "buy two or three of them". I think very often one would omit "of them" in English and wonder if that was a second correct answer, as it was a single-choice question ?

Sentence formulations

In the example, "Elle n'est pas stupide du tout!", "stupide" is used as an adjective.

However, the formulation given above says: ne + conjugated verb + pas du tout + (infinitive)

Can someone clarify this please.

What is the difference between ça and cela? I tend to use cela because when when ç needs to be a capital vowel it is difficult to use it

What is the difference between ça et cela ?

Vous n'êtes pas arrivés en retard

If you are refering "vous" formally to single person would "Vous n'êtes pas arrivé en retard". Arrivé without the "s".

Learned a new and useful expression

I've seen quite a few cricket matches and have always found them to be somewhat boring as the game is so slow compared to baseball, (no offense to my British counterparts, here). But, that may be because I never have really understood what was going on.

I liked this exercise and learned a new expression: "donner les grandes lignes" - "to give an outline". And, now that I have "les grande lignes" for cricket, I might enjoy watching a match more!

Just a note: "le batteur" sounds more like, "le batere"

Merci !

J’adore cette exercise...

J’adore cet exercise parce qu’il m’a fait découvrir un film vraiment amusant, et à une réalisatrice très interessante. En fait, j'ai pris du temps sur les exercices de grammaire pour regarder le film et je pense que je vais le revoir. Je veux en parler avec mon tuteur en Tunisie demain. Merci pour cela. Contenu vraiment super !

tiny hands / to grab

Instead of "avec ses mains minuscules" for "with his tiny hands", could you also say "avec ses toutes petites mains" ?

And

instead of the verb "attraper" could i have used "se saisir de" and said "il s'est saisi de mon pouce" ?
