I'm having a terrible time with pronunciation of these verbs. Google translate doesn't pick it up well even when I play clips of the native speakers. Any suggestions?
On peut aussi dire "du pont Saint-Martin"? Quand est-ce qu'on utilise "depuis" (from)? Ce sont des synonymes?
i don't understand the translation. why is "she would read" translated to "elle lisait" and not "elle lirait"?
i thought that "would" is conditional verb in english so it should be translated too to conditionnel in french? need any explication
Is there a way to possibly include more nationalities
In the exercise "Hanoucca dans ma famille (Vocabulaire)", it is spelled "hanoukkia" with two k's. Are both spellings correct, or just one? Thank you!
“À la maison blanche” refers to the White House, right ?
Since both parts of the sentence refer to a feeling/opinion, shouldn't both parts be conjugated using the imperfect past tense?
"Je ne voulais pas choisir pour elle, mais j'ai été soulagé"
Thanks in advance,

Actually, in most cases, the obligation was not met.
The first example in the above lesson definately specifies that they didn't come when supposed to. How is that complying with this rule "without specifying whether it was met or not"
So, am I correct in saying that the indirect object pronouns, 'lui' and 'leur' are applicable to both animate and inanimate things?
