What is the difference between très and trop? Because it corrected me when I said "Il est très drôle" instead of "Il est trop drôle". Thanks!
I assume that the avoir aspect of the sentence also changes with tense for example:
Imparfaite =J'avais besoin de= I have needed
Future= J'aurai besoin de= I will need
Passe compose= J'ai eu besoin de= I needed
Plus-que-Parfaite= J'avais eu besoin de= I have had needed
etc.
Is this correct?
Is it acceptable to say here instead:
Sur laquelle elle s'allongeait en rêvassant pendant des heures.?
I needed to research these expressions.
Should we are going to Portugal be nous allons au Portugal or nous allons dans le Portugal.
The examples use avoir but the text says use etre - I am confused
In the passage, " ... and Lisa fills the washer dryer.", you should say that Lisa fills the dryer. A washer-dryer is usually a stackable set of machines with the washer on bottom and the dryer on top, although it can also be one integrated machine. In this exercise, Lisa is clearly loading the dryer. We would only say that she is loading the washer dryer if she is loading both machines.
I have a doubt if the following direct to indirect speech. Which one of a & b is right? Thanks in advance. Une mère demande a son fils
There are two sentences in this text using amener and emmener in ways I thought were more correctly expressed with emporter: Taking too many clothes along with mother, and bringing one’s dolls to bathe in the sea. We’re talking about objects here, either personal or something brought from one place to another. I suppose the dolls could be expressed with apporter, as they were brought to Lola, but why did you choose amener and emmener, which I’ve studied as being used only in reference to people, animals, or vehicles?
