i WANT HOW SAY DO YOU LIVE
Could a sentence like "Pâques est la fête la deuxieme plus célébrée en France, après Noël" work?
When would you use this expression (s`en aller) instead of the verb partir? Je m`en vais or Je pars.
j'ai mangé pendant une heure vs j'ai mangé en une heure.
Do they have the same meaning: I ate within one heure?
Thanks.
En place de: Il ne faut pas que nous mangions avec nos doigts, puisqu'on dire: I faut que nous ne mangions pas avec nos doigts?
Quel est le genre grammatical de 'Paris', et pourquoi pas 'à la campagne' au lieu de 'dehors de la capitale' ?
In “en espérant que je ne me rende pas compte de son absence.”
We have “rendre” in the subjunctive as “rende”. This has been triggered by “espérer que”. But I thought that an affirmative use of “espérer que” would use the Indicative as opposed to the Subjunctive. I don’t know what additional implication the use of the gerund has though…

Pourquoi c'est permis pour "ce" être à place de "Elles" à la première phrase?
HI everyone,
So to my understanding reading the previous answers to the questions unambiguously would mean both am and pm?
Also I know the two different ways to say the numbers in both 12 hour and 24hour but, and as I'm reading the responses it seems that past 6pm you would use like deux treize quatroze etc. Would I be correct and if it's past midnight would it be the same?
Thanks
Nicole
In the 90s, several rap groups released songs that included the repeated refrain "Whoop/Whoot there it is!" This would often be played during sporting events, especially basketball, as a way to celebrate scoring a goal. Is the French "ça y est" similarly celebratory? Is it ever associated with scoring a goal at a sporting event?
