French language Q&A Forum

Hi,

I was wondering. My friend had asked me a question How is your room? Would I still use elle est since it is specific when i respond to her?

I came across this question in the quizzes. Why are these two sentences correct? One uses the feminine form and the other the masc. They are both referencing the time in the past. How does one determine if it is about the duration or precise moment?

“J’ai passé la journée avec Martin.”

I spent a day with Martin

“J’ai passé un an en Espagne quand j’avais dix-neuf ans.”

I spent a year in Spain when I was 19

What is wrong with the first?

Chers amis, 

Please clarify my doubt.  Mon école est à côté des appartements    or    Mon école est à côté d'appartements

Which one is right?   does de gets contracted to des or changes to d' as appartements starts with a vowel. 

Thanks in advance. 

Never sure about this one. I use ‘sortir’ when I’m leaving a house, for instance, but how does one ‘go out of’ a town? Seems to me that the examples using ‘partir’ and ‘quitter’ are the only correct ones, depending on context.

In the context of this lesson is rien the negative version of quelque chose and personne the negative version of quelqu’un (ie nothing and no one) ?

I used 'le livre titule....' instead of 's'appelle'

is it fine?

Merci

Can i say ‘vous allez devoir trouver’ ?

Hey! I answered a question (correctly) and in the results, they said I had unanswered it? What is going on with these tests? Hope you answer soon!
