I have no idea what this phrase is supposed to illustrate, let alone identify what part of it is supposed to be the adjective. Are you trying to say une fille blonde comme le soleil? If so, I think this particular exercise is not clear. It seems like a tossed word salad.
In English, one would generally not say "a blonde as the sun girl" one would say a girl as blonde as the sun. Though to be frank, I would not say that, either.
I don’t understand how to know whether this refers to a person (WHOM do you miss) or to a thing (WHAT are you missing).
Qu est -ce( derections) Select 4 landmarks in Paris. A museum (the Louvre) A shop Grand Magasins (le Printemps - Le Bon Marche - Galerie La Fayette) A church/ catedral A palace Ask for directions: Ou est-ce
I think faire faire and se faire + infinitif are quite hard for English speakers to get their heads round. Is there a reason that only one of the examples is in the present tense? Even that one is ambiguous (ils se font couper les cheveux - could be they’re getting their hair cut as we speak or are just about to).
Why is "elle va ne pas partir" wrong?
I cannot see this type of structure in the exercise examples…
Like…HÉ WILL HAVE BEEN EATING ALL DAY
Il ________ le contraire pendant quinze ans. He will have been claiming the contrary for fifteen years.(HINT: Conjugate "prétendre" (to claim) in Le Futur Antérieur)
I do not understand why in the above sentence écrit (pp of écrire?) has an 'extra' e. I understand this only applies to être verbs + avoir if object preceeds verb?

Should “tes chaussettes de sport qui sentent mauvais” be “tes chaussettes de sport qui sentent mauvaises” so that “mauvaises” agrees with “chaussettes”?
Are there translations (French into English) available for the listening/dictation exercises? Where would I find them? I use this to test/practice my listen comprehension as well.
