French language Q&A Forum

Good evening, 

Is there a way of moving multiple items(lessons) from one notebook to another? Once I have completed tests on certain subjects, I want to move them out of my main notebook and into a different one, so I'm only tested on the things I really need to learn quickly. Is there a way of doing of this without going into each individual lesson and moving it from there? 

Many thanks,

Emma 

Bonjour! I have two questions related to the first sentence of this exercise. Firstly, why does the first part of the sentence translate to 'Lille is less than two hours away by train' when the original sentence to translate was 'Lille is less than a couple hours away' (i.e. no specific duration). Additionally, why do we use 'ce qui en fait' instead of 'ce que le fait'? Merci beaucoup! 

Hi! 

For "Je me fais appeler" what does the "fais" mean? What are you doing/making to your name??

Thanks :)

Punctuation isn't mentioned in the dictation so should not be counted in the score (feedback from my year 11 students).

Here in SW France, you’ll often come across the road sign “le funérarium” directing you to the funeral parlour. In more formal language, they will also often talk about “des obsèques”, and I believe this refers to the whole funeral service.

Kwiz question " we see her tonight"  answer "nous la voyons cet soir".   I think it should be "nous lui voyons...if you follow the quick lesson.

The audio for WC sounds like “VC” instead of “double VC”. Is this an error, or is it in fact how it is said in that context in France?

Would it be acceptable to say « une question très dure » instead of « très difficile »? If not, what is the difference between dure and difficile?

I am curious about the grammatical function of "de" in a sentence such as the following:

"Je ne prends pas de bonnes résolutions." 

Thank you!
