Here does not 'le' refer to la ganache? So should it not be "La reste de la ganache?"
'But at the moment I was putting it on' - how does that translate to 'mais au moment de l'enfiler' - where's the 'I' and why is it in present tense?
Why are they skipping words?
In this lesson the note about the conversational past states that in these cases, the en will be before or after être: formally, it should be before, but in practice, it often ends up after.
Following this advice I put "Nous en nous sommes allés après le dessert.". This was flagged as incorrect, and "Nous nous en sommes allés après le dessert." as being correct.
This seems inconsistent with the note. I see there have been other questions about this topic. To me, "nous en nous sommes" flows off the tongue better than "nous nous en sommes".
So I translated "un proffeseur" to be "a teacher" and it was incorrect, with it saying I should have translated "one teacher". The accompanying grammar lesson only has information on the indefinite article (which I was using). What's going on?
'Après avoir considéré de faire peindre le mur' why is "DE" used? is 'considéré de' an expression
'plutôt que de remettre du papier peint' why is there "DE" here too?
Why can't we use "vraiment" here for "really"? and why does it contract to "de" ? I know its because of the quantity of "beaucoup" however the expression is "avoir du mal à"?
"Wait, I'm passing Paul onto you."
What does this sentence mean? I'm not a native english speaker but this sentence makes no sense.
Based on the french sentence, I deduce it has something to do with a phone conversation.
What convention is usually used when the prepositions "à" or "de" are before the title of a book that begins with "le" or "les", for example "les miserables?"
Will it follow the same preposition structure? Like au, aux, du, des?
