j'aime 'ramasser' instead of 'collectionner'
Is it right?
Per the given definition of the use of demeurer, je suis demeurê makes no sense since the question refers to a state of mind and not a location. Why is that given as the correct answer?
Why do you use “à la” with New-Orleans (On va à la Nouvelle-Orléans la semaine prochaine) if there is no article in the name of Nouvelle-Orléans? Is it because it’s a feminine noun? Do I have to use “à la” and “de la” with all feminine nouns OR only with the ones that start with the feminine articles?
I thought that "Je vais appeller mon agent de voyage demain" would convey a more immediate sense of will call v/s "J'appellerai ...". Or is it the "demain" that makes it more correct to use the Futur mode?
When d’où you use commencer à and commencer de? I have seen both used.
It’d be nice to have an example of what to do with the past participle of être verbs when using "on" when it means "we". I can’t find this covered in either of the modules On : we.
A little unclear re the use of the above. What is the difference, if any, between the following ?:
J'ai peu d'amis and J'ai quelques amis
Why is there a direct object pronoun in this sentence, "je poserai autant de vacances que je le pourrai"? What does "le" refer to here? Can you say, "je poserai autant de vacances que je pourrai"?
Speaking to friends, would it not be correct to say: 'Dépêche-toi', rather than 'Dépêchez-vous'?
