For

J'ai eu peur que nous ________ trop tard

I answered "ne soyons arrivés" but this was marked wrong. "Soyons arrivés" was given as corrrect.

Am I missing something with the expletive "ne" (which I do find a bit confusing!) Could you explain?

Thanks in advance,

Ian

Sorry again. The second sentence has only “dîner” without the “le”. Is there a reason for that?

Doubt in comparative form of 'bien'

Bonjour Madame,

In the sentence given in the lesson as

"Ta téle est bien mais la mienne est mieux"

In this sentence although the comparative form of 'bien' has been used but then also ' que' has not been used;though here 'mieux' is I think has been used as an adjective.

Mam,Pls guide the reason behind not writing 'que'

Thanks
