I would appreciate a lesson on the verbs used when expressing the desire to do something or looking forward to doing something.
Also, a lesson on the expressions used to mean "picking someone up" would be appreciated.
Merci.
While I did use "elle est aussi restée avec moi dimanche" could you use "elle m'est aussi restée dimanche" ?
Will you be doing an Italian course at some time? Thank you.
Where is the “Jargon Busters” referred to in the top of the lesson?
Because "gens" is "people" - plural - I put "...les gens qui sortent constamment leurs portables de leurs poches". Is there anything in the pronuncation that I missed that showed it was definitely singular? Or is it a rule in french that you would always say "they took their phone from their pocket" unless they all owned several phones and were taking them out of more than one pocket each? Or...was my answer plausibly a correct hearing?
Does avoir besoin de ever become avoir besoin des or du?
The first sentence, "il faut vraiment que l'on discute de ta mère" is the contraction l'on for "le" or "la" ? I still don't get why it is even needed. Would it not work to say, "...qu'on disute de ta mère" which then maps to English as "that we discuss about your mother".
I'm guessing that it's a direct object pronoun, but then why isn't "de ta mére" the object of the sentence?
