Hello. Can you please explain why is le passé composé used in the first sentence?
"Mon frère et moi avons toujours aimé les jeux vidéos."
I thought this should be in l'imparfait because it describes a habit in the past and not something that just happened for a day, no?
Bonjour!
Could you please explain that sentense: c'est la preuve que nous sommes donc tout autre que les spotifs? I don't understand when we can use 'donc' in the sentense.
Merci!
good reading exercise for young readers
My biggest mistakes at this simple point in A1 are because I don't know the word as opposed to missing the grammar rules (parce que, par, oeuvres, etc.). When I make mistakes the lessons recommended are almost always about the grammar -- are there lessons or suggestions for picking up more vocabulary? (although I'm suspecting that just doing exercises is the best way to get exposed to more words :-) )
I cannot quite figure out why the verb 'remplir' is in the form 'remplis'. Is it because 'remplis' is used as an adjective?
Can you use 'tandis que' instead of 'pendant que'?
Can you tell me how to decide between usage of 'de' and 'des'
for example
regarder des vidéos de chatons et de bébés
j'ai écrit
vidéos des chatons et des bébés!
2)Also how to say
(Its quite congfusing)
Is it
C'est déroutant!
Ca me confond un peu!
Merci beaucoup
Is there any list of nouns before which indefinite articles don't change in negative form?
Sorry to rehash this, but I find "follows the opposite pattern" confusing, as it really only applies to the use of avoir + demeuré, which is an intransitive use. Surely être demeuré remains (!) intransitive too, as it’s a state-of-being verb with no object?
"In the first half of the week" the acceptable translation is Dans (or durant or pendant) la première moitié though above it says "Durant". However, "In the second half of the week", "Dans" and "moitié are both marked as incorrect with "moitié" is replaced by "partie". Could you please explain the differences as I don't understand them.
