Est-ce que c'est necessaire pour repèter "dois" apres "dernière"? C'est une structure parallel in cui la premiere "fois" est assume. Comme en anglais:. It was the first time, but will probably be the last. Sans "fois" encore. Merci beaucoup.
The question was: "Les parents sont ____________ la Poste." The hint sais that the parents were at the post office. My response was "Les parents sont dans la Poste." QUIZBOT said that the correct response is "Leas parenat sont a (with accent) la Poste. Why is "dans" not correct?
I really love this story so much don't you?
Correct answer given is with ‘nulle part’ at the end. No problem with that but what is wrong with ‘n’importe où’? I’ve looked at the discussions and can’t find a definitive explanation for appropriate use of one over the other. Doesn’t ‘nulle part’ mean nowhere rather than anywhere? Merci as ever for guidance.
I was doing an Alevel french translation and encountered this. I could guess the meaning ‘24 free services are offered’ but I don’t get why the word order is like this.
Sont proposés 24 services gratuits, dont la recharge du téléphone et une coupe de cheveux.Speaking to friends, would it not be correct to say: 'Dépêche-toi', rather than 'Dépêchez-vous'?
D'accord:
"You will NOT use le when talking about weekdays in a specific context (on Monday):
Mercredi, tu iras à l'école.On Wednesday, you will go to school."
UNLESS "when giving a whole date (day/number/month/[year]), such as
Le mardi 5 mars, j'ai rencontré Lola.On Tuesday the 5th of March, I met Lola.
Par example on the test : Le mardi 6 janvier, j'étais malade.On Tuesday the 6th of January, I was sick.
HOWEVER< If the question was "On Tuesday I was sick" (without the whole date), it would be "Mardi, j'étais malade."
Is that correct?? Thanks
Is this also the correct way of framing inversion questions with Object Pronouns??? -
1. L’Aimes-tu? / L'aimez-vous? [Do you like him/her?]
2. Lui parles-tu souvent? / Lui parlez-vous souvent? [Do you speak to him/her often?]
3. Les avez-vous vus? / Les avez-vous vues? [Have you seen them?]
Is the above way more formal, than the intonation method used in this lesson?
I'm learning a piece of music by the composer Georges Hüe. How is this last name pronounced? From the description I saw on https://www.lawlessfrench.com/pronunciation/dieresis/ I am guessing that the "H" is silent, the "ü" is pronounced as a standard "u," and the "e" is voiced instead of silent. Is that correct? (If someone knows IPA, then perhaps that would be a good way to answer?)
B1 ???
You've got to be kidding! (Tu plaisant!)
This is hugely faster than an B1 student could ever contemplate.
Without the translation, I wouldn't have had a ghost of a chance of understanding this.
