Depuis que j’ai 4 ans ,,,,où. Dès que j’ai 4 ans???
Bonjour à toutes et à tous,
Few Qs on this exercise:
1. I'm not entirely sure why the phrase below is in the subjonctif passé - can someone please explain? I had used the subjonctif présent.
Bien que mon père et moi ayons passé du temps à sécuriser les volets cet après-midi-là
2. Given we've just mentioned the night in question, can one not use 'elle' rather than 'ça' in the phrase below?
Quand je pense à cette nuit-là, ça me fait toujours frissonner !
3. What is the difference between rameaux et branches? I had used the former.
Merci!
Nick

I really enjoyed this article. Yes, it’s chestnut harvest time, but alas the very hot and dry summer here in south west France has resulted in smaller fruits. However, I have managed to harvest some nice horse chestnuts from a tree tucked away behind a nearby cemetery. I also learned this year to add a fig leaf to the cooking liqueur at it enhances the flavour. I sous-vide the peeled fruits and freeze them in preparation for Christmas when I add to a meat based stuffing for stuffing the turkey neck cavity.
what should we use with piscine sur or dans
So while you can’t say ‘J’ai des autres chaussures’ , can you say ‘j’ai besoin des autres chaussures?’ More important, how would you say ‘I have some of the other shoes?’ How is that not ‘des autres chaussures’?
Hello! I'm confused about the sentence: "Pour que tous les habitants comprennent, le roi François Ier décide en 1539 .... " If the English translation takes place in the past tense (the king François decided), why does the phrase seem to be conjugated in the present tense? Why not "le roi François Ier a décidé?" Merci!
How do I identify a masculine or feminine noun?
I was interested in this use of "fameuse", does it have a hint of "infamous" here, rather than meaning "famous" ?
(I know fameux or fameuse can mean famous or celebrated in the context of food.)
Can you say "je n'ai pas encore reçu" instead of "je n'ai toujours pas reçu"?
Also, can you say "il m'a fallu frapper à chaque porte"?
