La Dune du Pilat Grammar question and size of Dune ?Thank you for this fun exercise. I had never heard of the Dune du Pilat. I looked it up and it is beautiful!
Grammar Question:
In the sentence:
"Comme son nom l'indique, c'est une immense dune de sable", where is the grammar lesson for using the pronoun " l' " in this case? The two pronoun lessons listed don't address this particular usage of the pronoun. Since there isn't a previous idea stated, what does the 'l' refer to? I seem to remember a lesson about this, but couldn't find it in the library. Would it be correct to say, "Comme son nom indique, c'est une immense dune de sable."?
Also, when I read, "Elle mesure environ 102 metres !", I was thinking of the length not the height.
Maybe the phrase could be amended to say, "Elle mesure 102 metres de hauteur." ?
Just for fun, here are the entire measurements from the Wikipedia page:
"The dune has a volume of about 60,000,000 m³, measuring around 500 m wide from east to west and 2.7 km in length from north to south (1.35 km2).[2][3] Its height was 106.60 m above sea level as of 2018."
Merci beaucoup !
Hi, Can you please help me with this?________ une clé. (I have found only one key.) Why "Je n'ai que trouvé" is not accepted as a correct answer? But Only "Je n'ai trouvé qu'" and "J'ai trouvé seulement" are correct. I checked the theory but I think "Je n'ai que trouvé" is also correct.
Why "s'illumine de lumieres colorees" and not "des lumieres colorees"?
I understand that "des" becomes "de" when the adjective precedes the noun that it is modifying, but in this case "colorees" is after "lumieres".
I know it is only correct to say Je vain manger à huit heures. However, in response to À quelle heure ?, I've seen the phrase At nine o'clock written as both À neuf heures and A neuf heures. Are both A and À correct to use in this instance?
Bonjour. J'ai une question. La lettre t en huit est muette lorsqu'on prononce un chiffre, par exemple 800. est-ce la même chose pour août par exemple le 10 août 2021 ?

"this classic French dessert" = "ce dessert classique français" and "the melted lemon butter" =" le beurre fondu à citron" How do I know which adjective goes first?
