I'm a little confused at the distinction between "beacoup de" and "de nombreux". I used "beacoup de" in an answer and got it wrong, but I believe it was grammatically correct. The answers in the Q&A help a little, but I think it would also help to have this mentioned in the lesson text.
Qu'est-ce-que cette citation veut dire ?
"he must be worried sick at the idea that I'm worried/anxious about his silence" ?
Quoi ? S'il a mal, avec intoxication d'alimentation, cloué au lit, il a plus des problèmes que si elle est inquiété, non ?
Si ça n'est pas correct, je n'en aucune idée.
1)I used 'formidable' instead of 'genial'. Is it right?
2)Usually bac is used for bins. Here its used for 'tray'.I thought it was 'plateau' for tray.
Merci
In this example Je vois un soleil jaune et une fleur jaune. the pronounciation of the word jaune is very different for the first and second occurence. The first one is pronounced with an e almost like jauné, while the second one has a silent e like jaun.
Is the word pronounced differently depending on the gender, is the speech broken (it sounds very robotic), or is it pronounced differently depending on what word it comes before in the sentence (here ... jaune et ...)?
Hi, the line “that her grandmother sent her” translates to “que sa grand-mère lui a envoyée” in the exercise, but should this be “que sa grand-mère lui a envoyé”. I.e. Should “envoyé” not pick up the extra feminine “e” because there is no COD before the verb, there is only a COI before the verb.
Which spelling is correct "fraiches" or "fraîches"? Treatment in the exercise and the finished text is inconsistent.
Would one do liaison in this sentence?
Nous sommes troP Occupe's. (sorry I can make an accent)
Somewhere in my past studies, I was told that using "bien" with "aimer" actually lessens its meaning from love to like. Did I get that wrong, because in my recent lessons, it's used more as an intensifier. Sorry if I missed this on the thread before.
Why have a kwiz where we are tested on conjugating "ralentir" if it turns out to actually be regular, given the information above? Are we supposed to understand that the examples above are the only irregular -tir verbs, or most of them? Because that is not particularly clear. What rough percentage of -tir verbs are irregular vs. regular?
