Bonjour, j'ai une question de grammaire. Pourquoi utilsez-vous le pronom ce dans le phrase "ce ne sont pas des freres" au lieu de "ils"?
Le mot "magnigfique", est-ce que c'est une faut d'orthographe?
Never sure about this one. I use ‘sortir’ when I’m leaving a house, for instance, but how does one ‘go out of’ a town? Seems to me that the examples using ‘partir’ and ‘quitter’ are the only correct ones, depending on context.
You show the flag mounted with both the blue side and the red side against the flagpole. This is clearly incorrect.
I used the verb s'éveiller for "wake up", but it was not given as one of the alternatives. I thought "se lever" meant "to get up (out of bed)", rather than specifically to wake up. Can you clarify?
I know these lower level dictées are meant to be spoken slowly to suit beginners, but I find that with the over-enunciation, I often hear words that aren't there. Not sure whether this is a good thing or not?
For example:
-J'adore voyager
-C'est mon passe-temps favori
I hear :
-j'adore à voyager
-C'est mon passe au temps favori
Merci, j'ai apprécié. Ce qui pourrait être amusant, c'est d'avoir un exercice d'écoute où l'on fait un dessin à partir d'instructions vocales !
Why is "de vernis" used in this sentence and "du vernis" in the following sentence ? I thought it was a masculine noun, ie du vernis
"Il faudra qu'on se refasse ça à l'occasion". I am unclear about the function of "se" in this sentence. Would it also be correct to say "Il faudra qu'on refasse ça à l'occasion" to mean "We'll have to do this again sometime"?
For the sentence "In this beautiful and lively city," I answered "Dans cette belle ville vivante," which was not accepted. Can you explain why as elsewhere it seems to be an accepted translation?
