"À l'avenir, je devrai t'écouter davantage."
In the future, I'll have to listen to you more.
Are there any rules around when to use davantage vs plus, or are they interchangeable? Could I have used:
"À l'avenir, je devrai t'écouter plus." ?
Thanks
The recommended translation reads 'au sein de sa famille ou au sein de sa communauté'. Why is the long prepositional phrase repeated? Could you not say 'au sein de sa famille ou de sa communauté'?
Bonjour,
pourriez vous me dire la différence entre «au cas où besoin», «au cas du besoin» et «en cas de besoin»?
merci d'avance
If I were to say: I spend my holidays relaxing, would the translation be “j’ai passé mes vacances” “en relaxant” or “à relaxer”?
Thanks!
Just a question concerning the reference to Finir as the Regular 2nd group of -ir verbs; and Partir as Irregular 3rd group of -ir verbs.
Is there an explanation somewhere of the groups of verbs that are being referred to here? What is the Regular 1st group -ir verbs, etc.?
Why not?
Ils me n'ont pas pris... I thought object pronouns preceded the negation.
1. Nous dansons.
2. Je lis un livre.
3. Marie etudie le francais.
4. Marc et Paul ecoutent la musique.
5. Vous faites une promenade.
6.Est-ce que tu regardes la tele?
The quick Lesson on this sites that in the negative imperative the subject pronoun (tu, vous, nous) is dropped.
In Schaum's Outlines text, I see the following negative imperatives: Ne te reveille pas, Ne nous reveillons pas, and Ne vous reveille pas.
One of the exercise questions in chapter 5 of same text asks for the negative imperative of "Promenez-vous dans le parc" The answer is Ne vous promenez pas dans le parc.
Having trouble understanding this
Shouldn't the past participle agree with the subject in this?

The correct answer should "I am happy, and they are, too." The first missing common is tolerable but not the second. Small beer perhaps, but still....................
