Imo, it should be "par carte", not "en carte". Isn't it?
it shouldnt be from here pls reply
Each of these expressions are translated using 'du'. In English, both are possessive. In the first case, we are talking about a place, so I can rationalize the use of 'du' instead of 'de'. In the second case, I have more of a problem. It seems like a simple use of the possessive which I think would call for 'de' instead of 'du'. Can I get some guidance here? Thanks.
Je n'aurais pensé que l'aurais si facilement. Should je n'aurais pensé trigger the subjunctive?

Bescherelle punctuates haïr in the passé simple as: je haïs, tu haïs, il haït, etc., whereas you insist on: j'hais, tu hais, il hais, etc. Can they both be correct?
J'ai choisi créer pour "made up" mais il ne marchait pas. À sa place, vous avez proposé "inventer." Dans la deuxième instance, j'ai utilisé "inventer ". Vous avez fait la correction, "créer ". Je pense que tous les deux devraient être acceptable dans chaque traduction. Make up, imagine, create sont des synonymes dans le contexte de cette histiore. L'histoire était mignon comme d'habitude. Félicitations !
