Wish we could delete these rather than having to leave a '.' in the submission or otherwise fill the space, like this!
Am struggling to understand why the answer uses the present subjunctive of etre.
Thanks for any help!
Why is étrange before the noun here? In the other example answers, it comes after.
Isn't 'une boîte' a nightclub? Surely it would make more sense for Elsa to be leaving a nightclub than a box?
Hi, why is “la plus grande partie” feminine? It seems to be “attached to” the male “siècle” more than to the female “devise”.
In the second-to-last sentence in this dialogue, the character doesn't change back to the customers' voice (the last 3 sentences are all in the waiters' voice). It sounds like the waiter is asking himself if the restaurant has sparkling water. I know this is a help desk issue, but I suggest a Report Problem button be included in these lessons like the regular lessons have in order to report these glitches more easily.
This was a fun exercise. I really enjoyed learning about la montee des marches and seeing the beautiful photographs of Cannes while researching the vocabulary.
My question refers to the "hotel de luxe". Since the "stars" are plural wouldn't one assume that they leave their "luxury hotels", (plural)? Which would be: "leurs hotels de luxe" ? Or, is the possessive here always expressed in the singular, "leur hotel de luxe"?
Another question is about the use of the present tense in "j'admire". Would it be incorrect to say, "...que j'admirais depuis toujours"
Merci beaucoup !!
The question was: "Are we waiting for Laura? No, we're not waiting for her any longer.
I put: Nous attendons Laura? Non, nous ne l'attendons plus.
This was marked incorrect. Please explain why the pronoun "la" can't be used here, in abbreviated form with an apostrophe.
The lesson that accompanies the question does not deal with pronouns.
I can't see why my answer is wrong.
Please advise.
