Est-ce que je peux écrire
baisser la température
a la place de
faire descendre la temperature
Merci
I read in the site somewhere that with body parts its always the definite article and not possessive adjective. But here its says ses joues and i think son coeur.
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,
John
I spent a good couple of minutes trying to figure out what she was saying in the middle. I ended up submitting "Il fait trop chaud bon sauce bolognaise!" "Pour une" obviously makes more sense, but did anyone else have trouble making out those two words? It certainly sounded like "bon" to me.
'But at the moment I was putting it on' - how does that translate to 'mais au moment de l'enfiler' - where's the 'I' and why is it in present tense?
Êtes-vous sûr de vouloir dire "primordial" ? Peut-être devrait-il être "prééminent", par exemple. 'Primordial' suggère quelque chose qui existe depuis la nuit des temps, quelque chose d'assez primitif, dont aucun ne sonne juste dans ce contexte.
The sentence refers to buying a "region". To me, that implies a rather large estate with a fancy house and well-kept grounds. My dictionary gives 'terres' as the preferred choice over 'domaine' when referring to lands. Should this option not be added? If not, why is domaine preferred?
Context and interpretation is not being considered in My answers... Why?
I ask this because I would like to know if They want Direct Translations or do They want to Same Essence of what is being said?
