I can’t find how to reference multiple days together, is there an example?
“On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I get up at 6.” which of the following is correct?
Le lundi, mercredi et vendredi je me lève à six heures
or
Les lundi, mercredi et vendredi je me lève à six heures
or
Le lundi, le mercredi et le vendredi je me lève à six heures
Thanks
Jon
In the French written answer there should be a full stop instead of a comma in the line “Bien sûr Madame, On vous apporte ça tout de suite”. The corresponding line in English has a full stop. Thanks.
Hi - As Adrian mentioned, this is not enough to explain the change from de to du
Note that de becomes du / de la / de l' / des depending on the gender and number of the noun following it (e.g. of the).
Although Chris has offered good explanations in this Q&A forum - it should be in the lesson itself - Can you please add the variation.
What is the difference between ça et cela ?
4À la fin de l'année, on ________Hanoucca. At the end of the year, we celebrate Hanukkah.(HINT: Conjugate "célébrer" (to celebrate) in Le Présent)célèbrecélèbronsLearn and Discuss »
j'ai mangé pendant une heure vs j'ai mangé en une heure.
Do they have the same meaning: I ate within one heure?
Thanks.
"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"?
In the example 1 x 2 = 2, the translation given is « une fois deux égal deux. » I translate this as « one times two equals two. » Why is « une » used instead of « un» ? In contrast, I see that an another possible translation is « un multiplié par deux. »
I don't find it helpful to learn how to conjugate in the passé simple (no plans to become a novelist). I keep getting passé simple questions in my quizzes, which is frustrating because the other C1 grammar is very useful and I want to master those things. Is there any setting that lets us include/exclude certain material from the quizzes?
