Bonjour,
Selon la leçon , IL+pronom+faut+nom. Pourquoi y-a-t-il "de" dans: Il lui faut de l'aide. Je ne comprends pas. SVP, l'expliquez- moi! Merci d'avance.
So while you can’t say ‘J’ai des autres chaussures’ , can you say ‘j’ai besoin des autres chaussures?’ More important, how would you say ‘I have some of the other shoes?’ How is that not ‘des autres chaussures’?
In the context of this lesson is rien the negative version of quelque chose and personne the negative version of quelqu’un (ie nothing and no one) ?
"Les aventures d'Astérix sont traduites" - Grateful if you could explain why "traduites" is used instead of "traduisent". My thinking is that the translation refers to the adventures (which is plural). Thank you in advance!
In the follow sentance someone is reporting back what was said to them.
"donc, au beau milieu de la nuit tu serais allé boire un verre d'eau et tu aurais vu une soucoupe volante dans le jardin, excuse-moi!"
Why is the conditional being used here instead of the passe compose. And if I were to speak this sentance using the passe compose would it be incorrect. Thanks.
The translation for "the latest season" is given as "la dernière saison." When reading the grammar lesson for dernier, I thought this would mean the final season of the show (i.e. the show has concluded and they are not planning to produce anymore seasons).
I had interpreted "the latest season" to mean the most recent (i.e. previous) season, so I used "la saison dernière" but this was marked incorrect.
Can someone explain further? Thanks!
Why in the above translation has the word 'gotten' been used? Although acceptable in USA + Canada, it is regarded as bad grammar in the UK? I had got....... ought to be the translation.
There seems to be a mistake on this page. Everything is in English!
How would you write "Question of the Day"? For example, each day my french class starts with a "question of the day". I've been using jour but now I'm worried I've been incorrect.
