I am using an iPad and for some reason I can hardly ever get the arrow for the voice recording to play twice. I would really like the option of being able to listen to the recording once, then write what I think I hear, then play the recording one more time to check what I’ve written. Is this a problem only with iPads or are other people having the same challenge? Thanks.
For in countries/cities, I always thought it was either "à" (usually for cities, except for a small number of cases e.g. au Canada, au Japon), and "en" for countries.
E.g. J'habite à Melbourne.
J'habite en Australie.
However the above example says j'habite DANS le Yorkshire... how can you live INSIDE a place?
"Elle est soulagée de ne pas devoir être opérée."
Is this the infinitif passé, please?
And if not - what!
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?
In the passage 'n'avait pas quitté le coin du feu de toute la semaine' why is there a de before 'toute la semaine'?
Is there a logical explanation for why we don't say "rendre visite aux"? For example, we can say "Je rendre visite à mes parents" but we can't say "Je rends visite aux mes parents"?
hi,
I was wondering what is the easiest way to know when something is in the 12 hour clock or when something is in the 24 hour clock? This seems to be my most problem in this section of understanding.
thanks

Where has the link to this lesson gone for above mentioned special cases of past participle agreeing with the object when using avoir? I would like to see this lesson,it is not popping up in my feed as the question is only testing Quelles (A2)..
Thanks, Danielle
Does this convention only work when talking about full thousands/millions/billions? What if you want to say 12,505 things or 1,350,000 things?
