The speech on this exercise is so unclear it's almost impossible for an intermediate speaker to understand. I understand you're trying to provide a variety of accents and voices, but I don't think it helps someone at an intermediate level to give a lesson with a very unclear voice. I played this to a native French speaker, and she had trouble understanding it. Please re-record!
We were asked to translate "around the globe." The answer was given as "du monde entier." Why not "autour du globe"?
I’m done—what else can I say?
I can't figure this out: When does "pas encore" mean not again?
If I search on google translate or deepl or reverso context for example, all translations of "not again" are "pas encore".
Why? if it is supposed to be incorrect.
Could you explain why the English "Yes, I agree with you." would be translated to the French "Oui, j'accorde avec toi."? I would have thought it would be "Oui, je suis d’accord avec toi" and even Google Translate renders it that way. Not that I am saying Google Translate is authoritative, but I don't really recall "j'accorde" even being in that lesson. But I will go back and look for it again. Thanks.
(Added a couple of minutes later: I did another quiz and this time it agreed with my "Oui, je suis d’accord avec toi".)
When I take the quizzes, the answers I choose aren't the ones showing when I get the review. It seems the quiz is changing my answers. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Hi, the answer for “Commande en même temps” reads “Commande en même temps, ça ira plus vite !”, giving away the next section, which is “ça ira plus vite !”. Also, this feels more like a A1 than a B1.
I wrote cannelle for cinnamon and was marked wrong and changed to canelle, but in the dictionary it is spelt cannelle. Which is correct??
Above is the referenced quiz question, to which I answered 'you cannot say'. However, the results indicate correct answer is 'a woman'. This is incorrect. Since "ami" start with a voul, you must use "son" whether the subject is masculine or feminine, therefor, you cannot tell is Sylvie's friend is a man or a woman.
Why does the "Hint" have: "-'it' = l'hotel", but considers "L'hotel..." as incorrect? I originally used "Il..." (considered correct) and changed it due to the hint!
