Qu'est-ce qu'une galatte
Just to ask why it is "de conseils" , not "des conseils" ?
Is it because it is a continuation of "plein de" ?
I believe plein de is invariable, i.e. would never use des.
e.g. "plein de trucs" , "plein de choses"
Thanks
Paul.
In the sentence, "Il s'agit de l'un des plus grands bâtiments gothiques d'Europe, dont les fresques finement ouvragées vous laisseront bouche bée d'admiration.”, duquel, referring to 'un', is not offered as a possibility. Why not?
"I have been living here for 10 years" --> J'habite ici il y a 10 ans". I know the translation provided by the video is "Il y a 10 ans sue J'habite ici". Why can't I say the I live part (J'habite) first? Thank u :)
Not sure why - it does not seem a particularly unusual word to use in this context ?
It is interesting just how many words French has for 'annoying'!
Under “nous avons pu réinvestir les dons qui nous étaient parvenus”, the “voix passive” lesson is listed beneath it, and not the “plus que parfait” lesson.
But isn’t it that case that this line is an example of plus que parfait, and not of voix passive?
This may seem like splitting hairs, but I find the listed lessons very useful even just from their titles, to guide my understanding of the grammar.
During the first sentence below, I find it super hard to pick up the 'eu' after déjà - is it actually there?!
- As-tu déjà eu l'occasion de séjourner à l'Hôtel du Palais à Biarritz ?
Merci pour un texte du moment. 🥰
J'ai une question de vocabulaire.
Est-ce que « pour qu'elles vous SOUTIENNENT jusqu'à la prochaine fois » est acceptable comme une traduction ?
Si non, j'aimerais bien comprendre la raison.
Merci beaucoup.
It says to use MIEUX for a general statement with être about something or someone being fine/OK/better/the best.
Can we say.... "C'est la mieux idée." ? [This/It is the best idea.]
