I needed to translate this sentence : but my sister goes swimming every Saturday."
I answered
mais, ma soeœur fait la natation Samedis.
I once learnt (but I am not sure my memory is correct)
faire + activities = the activities you do regularly
aller + nager = occasionally
Am I wrong>?
Il fait du tennis (fait + de le)
Il joue au tennis (joue à + le)
I thought whether we use partitve articles should depends on the thing we modify instead of the verb
It doesn't appear possible to rewind this sound clip. For me personally , that makes it much less useful, as you have to replay the whole thing from the beginning. ( I have tried Firefox and Microsoft edge, so I don't think it's the web browser).
Could we please have an interface that allows us to rewind the sound ? Thanks Paul.
I know I am a little old-fashioned about this, but even though "it sucks!" is used more and more frequently these days in colloquial American speech, I think it is still a fairly vulgar expression. Does "ca craint" have the same level of vulgarity as "ca suce" in French? I'm just curious.

Bonjour Cécile,
In the lesson, a sentence has been given
"La vanille,c'est bon,mais le chocolat,c'est meilleur."
If the sentence is inversed,as-
"Le chocolat,c'est bon,mais la vanille,c'est meilleure."
Would in this case "meilleur" be used or "meilleure"?
Please explain the reason behind it also.
Merci d'avance.
