C'est quoi la difference entre "des patates" et "des pommes de terre"?
What is the difference between article definis and article indefinis. Why can't we use les or des for a plural, or any of these?
For the sentence “And afterwards, I would finally propose to her”, there are two answers:
Et après, je lui demanderais enfin de m’épouser/ Et après, je la demanderais enfin en marriage.
Why is the indirect object for the verb “demander” used in the first sentence and the direct object for the verb “demander” used in the second?
In "M. Dupont et Mme Vichy vont au bureau." above, it sounds like M. is just being pronounced as the letter M and not as monsieur but Mme is pronounced as madame. Is that really how this would be said aloud? Also, is it correct that the M. has a period to denote abbreviation but the Mme does not? Is there a rule to help explain this?
