I understand why we use the definite article for one and possessive adjective for the other buy why are they both singular?
Could clouer and enfoncer be used interchangeably here or is there a subtle difference ?
I love the use of the colors ! You might consider using them in all the examples as well. Finally, for even greater clarity - select a color for the subject of the verb (that which is doing the "bringing to mind"). Again, the colors are so powerful. Thank you for all the great lessons.
In the question: "Regarde! Elle bâille! Quelqu'un est ________ ." I chose "fatigué", and was marked wrong, claiming I had put "bâillé", (which I didn't.) Why?
In level C1 why is there so much emphasis on passé simple? I would rather be practising useful phrases. Thank you.
The notes to the translation reference the lesson that teaches that most adjectives come after the noun. Short and common ones come before, but I don't think "majestuese" fits either of these requirements.
So, why is it placed before in this case, and the reverse placement is not accepted?
I don't understand "Il ne me restait plus qu'à cacher les oeufs." What is the use of "qu' à"?
Direct speech : Ma mère m'a demandé "Qui est-ce avec toi?"
Indirect speech : a. Ma mère m'a demandé qui c'est avec moi.
b. Ma mère m'a demandé qui c’était avec moi.
I would be grateful if anyone can say a or b, which one is right, or any other is possible for this. Thanks in advance.
