Two simple questions:i
I retook the exercise and used 'observer' instead of 'regarder' as I think it would work just fine in this case, but it was marked wrong. From the dictionary entry it seems that observer would apply equally well in this case.
I also used 'le Moyen Age' instead of 'l'epoque medievale'. I realise that the latter is a more direct translation, but I am much more familiar with 'le Moyen Age'. Is there a general preference for one experession over the other?
Merci a tous !
Please help for the following :
What are the differences between these two sentences
1) Il habite à dix minutes de Marseille.
2) Il habite à 10 min de Marseille.
My answer was the number one, but the Kwiziq marked it wrong.
Thank you!
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?
Why is it "je te l'avais dit" and not "je te l'ai dit!"?
Thanks!
When d’où you use commencer à and commencer de? I have seen both used.
Please Kwiziq do not be like Duolingo and be inflexible with the words allowed/considered correct. Faire de la soupe et préparer de la soupe are synonymous and both should be correct.
Which tense would lendemain be , as it can be used in both imparfait,future anterieur
Petite question. Je n’ai rien trouvé concernant un doute que j’ai où le sujet dont on parle s’agit de plusieurs noms et avec quel mot on doit faire l’accord.
Exemple: La liste des mots que j’ai apprise.
Dans ce cas, je n’ai pas appris la liste donc il me semble étrange de faire l’accord avec « la liste » meme si c’est le sujet. Quelle est la règle?"Elle veut que tu fasses la grasse matinée demain matin."
