Hello everyone.
I'm reading the book, La Belle et La Bête, and I saw une année passe. Why does it use année instead of an?
Thank you
So helpful to practice like this.
The hardest part to understand for me was the first phrase "Marie aime aller"! It sounded like "Marie et Amelie". Now it's obvious that it does not sound like that at all :)
Hi,
Is there a lesson that explains the difference between amener and emmener as I am always mixing them up !
Thanks
For the phrase
I'd been following his career since the release of C.R.A.Z.Y. in 2005.
The answer was
Je suivais sa carrière depuis la sortie de C.R.A.Z.Y. en 2005.
But could it also be
J'avais été suivi sa carrière depuis la sortie de C.R.A.Z.Y. en 2005
I see that the preferred translation for 'my thirst for reading' is 'ma soif de lecture' but I don't see how this relates to article use. She has a thirst for reading in general / the idea of reading. If she had 'an enthusiasm for reading' it would surely be 'un enthousiasme pour la lecture'. What am I missing?
One line has an answer of “C'est l'un des plus anciens lieux de culte du pays.”
and then also of “C'est un des plus anciens lieux de culte du pays.”
But the audio is “c’est l’un”, not “c’est un”, so I guess the second answer shouldn’t appear as an option, even if it’s a grammatically correct alternative.
Not a big issue, but I thought I’d mention it.
I know that she did not say Tu vas l'adorer but why didn't she? Is it an idiosyncratic expression that doesn't require an object?
Could you forward this technical issue to the correct department? I like to keep a copy of the exercise available while I am actually doing the exercise so that I can refer back to the suggested vocabulary if necessary. Sometimes this works, sometimes not. In this exercise, I was not able to bring up two copies at the same time. Even after starting the exercise, I was not able to bring up the page with the vocabulary while retaining my place in the exercise itself. My position in the exercise would disappear and I would see the original page. If I hit start on that page, it would jump to my position where I left off. It was impossible to keep the original page and do the exercise simultaneously. Thanks for looking into this. Send me an email if you require additional details.
