Vous êtes entré-pourquoi il n’y a pas un “s” à la fin du mot entré
Why is it "Elle fait exprès d'être en retard." and not "Elle a fait exprès d'être en retard.
The lessons says to use either. Where is the explanation/lesson details?
1. Ses déclarations étranges auront déconcerté le public.
how to write this in passive form?
Bonjour,
I have a tiny off-topic question relating the articles of the nouns before qui/que.
Must the articles always be "les" instead of "des" because the noun is defined by qui/que later on already. Is this the right way to understand it?
The examples in this lesson always use un/une and verb of preference like "adorer" (which we all know must go with definite articles).
So I'm just asking what if I want to say: "They are the girls who I saw yesterday". Should it be:
a) Elles sont les filles que j'ai vues hier
b) Elles sont des filles que j'ai vues hier
Merci.
Surely it is le mien? Please explain
Dans ce texte la prononciation de "la ville" n'est pas de tout claire !
I don’t understand why you say ” Mais je n’avais pas LE choix”, but (I google translated this, as I first thought you were wrong here) "Je n’avais pas DE choix"
Please explain as I’m learning on my own and have no teacher to ask. I don’t even get where to look in the grammar for this.
Even though I've read and practiced a lot with them, I still can distinguish which is which, why in this story "Je voulais les garder" but not "J'ai voulu les garder". Please help me!
1. Ce sont de longues jupes nouvelles. 2. Ce sont des jupes longues et nouvelles. 3. Ce sont de longues jupes nouvelles. 4. Ce sont de longues et nouvelles jupes. Which one is the correct sentence? Please clarify. Thanks in advance.
