in the sentece 'a variety of TV programs appeared..' one answer conjugates apparaitre with etre: 'À cette époque, une variété de programmes télé sont apparus..' . I would have used 'avoir'. Ami I missing something or am I just having a bad day?
Hi Kwiziq, I think there is a bug with one of the questions. The question 'How would you say "This witch smells very bad!" ?' keeps showing that I chose the same wrong answer, even though I am not choosing that response. This has happened like 5 times in a row and has reduced my lesson score!
The response it keeps showing as chosen -> Cette sorcière sent très mauvais.
The one I actually chose -> Cette sorcière sent très mal
Not sure if question was clearly expressed!
Hi there, just wondering why we don't need to accord the 'grande forme' as 'grandes formes' with the attackers (plural)
"et nos attaquants ne sont pas en grande forme."
Thanks!
I wrote "Notre Salade aux Trois Fromages est [...] et assez copieuse" which was marked as incorrect. Looking at Le Robert, copieux is given as a synonym of consistant so I'm wondering why?
Does copieux mean more that the dish is physically large (ie a lot of food) whereas consistant just means it's filling but doesn't given any indication to the size of the meal?
The first time I did this exercise, I wrote "Je vais etre beau et elegant !" Then, I changed it to: "Je vais avoir l'air beau et elegant !", which was marked wrong. Wouldn't the use of the phrase, "avoir l'air" also be correct in this situation?
Merci beaucoup et bonne continuation !
The phrase 'which seemed to have been left there' is translated as 'qui semblaient avoir été laissées là'.
Could you also translate it using 'y' rather than 'là' (and if so, where would the 'y' go ?) ?
My dictionary translated this as 'événement sportif' and did not give 'épreuve' as an option. When I used the same dictionary in reverse by looking up the translation of 'épreuve', the translation was ordeal, test, hardship but not sporting event. Do I need a new dictionary?
