Would be good to have further explanation of when you use the present (which we all know is 'normal' with depuis) and when you use the the passé composé. I realise it's quite complicated, but using three examples with two different tenses, without acknowledgement, is rather confusing. (Ah, just read the existing comments. See I'm not the first to feel this!)
i was wondering why for the sentence
j’aime les escargots. It becomes je le aime instead of je les aime.
thank you
I almost never get an answer to my questions, but I will try once more. I learned that ," J'ai mal a la tete" meant "My head hurts," or "I have a headache, (sorry but don't know the keystrokes here to get accent symbols). Now, in this exercise, it's using "faire" rather than "avoir" to express physical discomfort, but the answer concenrates only on the use of possessive adjectives, not the strange change from "avoir" to "faire." I feel frustrated and very confused. Help!
Which one is correct? Which one should I use?
"A-t-elle parlé français ce soir ?"
There is nothing in the question, or in the Quick Lesson, that indicates that the phrase " tôt" is incorrect. There is no context, so BOTH/EITHER answer(s) must be correct. Annoying.
