Bon-bien etc...Love this discussionExcellent example of the great design of the teaching/learning structure in Progress with LF. All these different approaches to the linguistic thought process result in "understanding why" rather than remembering (or trying to remember!)

Isn't 'lui' used for 'him' and 'elle' for 'her'? Then why 'Il lui envoie deux mille roses' is translated as He sends her two thousand roses.

Sound the same?Is there any difference in pronunciation between Ils s'assoient and Il
s'assoit if the following word starts with a consonant? If not, how can you tell which is meant if the context doesn't make it clear?

About se promener et promener

Bonjour Aurélie, Laura

I was wrong when writing”Je me promène avec mon chien”. Kwiziq has an example in the explanation :” Je me promène dans le parc avec Julie”. The différence here is la place “ dans le parc”,right? I feel confusing. Thanks a lot.

confusion on ‘j’achète de beaux draps?’

Hi guys, just a bit confused on that example

so the rule is that:adjective is placed BEFORE a plural noun,

so in that example, obviously ‘beaux’ is placed before a plural noun, so why doesn’t it mean ‘I buy SOME nice sheets’ instead of I buy nice sheets?

thanks!
