la fin de la deuxième phrase - les termes que le Chancelier allemand Adolf Hitler LUI imposerait. 

 "LUI" parce que les termes seraient imposés au maréchal Pétain.          ou

"Y" parce que les termes seraient imposés à la France.    (...la France accepterait les termes que le Chancelier allemand Adolf Hitler y imposerait.)

"He's thinking of his holidays.  He's thinking of it."

Can I suggest that "He's thinking of his holidays.  He's thinking of them." would be better?

"les vêtements colorés"

"des vêtements sombre"

I don't get the difference.

Thanks

The audio for the complete exercise has some sections missing

Ok, I should have heard the "la" but I didn't - and I put "le mi-août" because août is masculine. Is it, then, the case that if you use the prefix "mi-" the whole thing ( "mi-qqch") invariably becomes feminine?

Is féerique a possibility in the last line?

hi, 

can someone tell me or give me a link for compound adjective.  for example there is a sentence un etonnement bon film and i am just trying to understand the complement of it.

thank you

Why is it 'Elle me rappelle Paula' rather than  'elle rappelle Paula à moi' ?

In the sentence , doesn't sound like it starts with a . I listen to that over and over again and I just couldn't hear . Does anyone else get that problem?

Could someone explain the rule for describing who someone is; i.e. why does 'she is my wife' translate as c'est ma femme? - "it is my wife'!

Thanks.
