Is the phrase 'Qui que ce soit' followed by the subjunctive?
What is the difference between billet and ticket
Pourquoi "tu es" est-il la bonne réponse ici ?
2Tu ________ demeuré immobile tout le long.You remained still all the way.esas
I keep getting this wrong because I choose the wrong answer "What is it that it is" because in the lesson for "What is it" it offers
"Literally "what is it that it is?", it is pronounced [kess kuh say]."
but the correct answer according to the test is "What is it".
Why is the literal meaning not correct? If I had my way the literal answer wouldn't be listed.
Bonjour--
De temps en temps, je vois une construction selon l'exemple :
"Et Christophe (ou Pierre, Marie, etc.) de dire (ou autre verbe)..."
Pourriez-vous me confirmer 1) si cette construction est courante, et 2) si elle reflete un francais litteraire, ou bien a la rigueur si elle fait partie du francais couramment parle?
Un grand merci,
Fred
Samedi matin nous allons faire des cours et l'aprés midi j'aurais un examen de français pendant 2 heures.
On the phrase On ne doit pas parler la bouche pleine, how come avec is not necessary to translate it to "with the mouth full"?
My understanding was that "Du" is a contraction of "de le". Why do we use "du" but not the equivalent "de la"?
Thanks!
