"In the first half of the week" the acceptable translation is Dans (or durant or pendant) la première moitié though above it says "Durant". However, "In the second half of the week", "Dans" and "moitié are both marked as incorrect with "moitié" is replaced by "partie". Could you please explain the differences as I don't understand them.
Why is "une exposition totalement nouvelle" correct, shouldn't it be "une totalement nouvelle exposition" ?
Vraiment?
The lesson re the above clearly states that “If it/ he/ she is followed by a determinant you will use c’est.” Why then, after taking Lucie’s temperature does the doctor say, “ Elle est un peu élevée” and when taking her blood pressure, “Elle est un peu basse”? I can understand why he would say “Elle est élevée” or “Elle est basse” but surely the given answer contradicts the rule.
Also, why cannot 'le temps' be used to say "now it's time to..." ? The correct answer was l'heure.
Hi, just to let you know, there are three occasions in this exercise where there is “mille-sept-cent…” in the audio, but “dix-sept-cent…” in the text”.
One of the prompts says translate "Will come and visit us?". I think it should be corrected to "Will you come and visit us?"
Same query regarding the subjunctive but different sentence:
C'est le seul footballeur qui ait réussi à me faire pleurer....
In this sentence, I cannot hear the "d'œil"
Le vétérinaire a jeté un coup d'œil rapide à sa patte,
Just when I think I might have that French partitive sorted out, I fear not!
" un petit pot adorable de la confiture à la framboise." My thinking was that the container was named, "un petit pot" so why not "de confiture..." ?!
