Léo vient à trottinette.
Léo vient en trottinette.
Both are correct?
"Elle veut que tu fasses la grasse matinée demain matin."
Why doesn’t the past participle take an extra ‘s’ with ‘nous’. Isn’t there more than one person, like ‘ils’?
Can one say "le jour avant" as well ?
Hi I am a bit confused. I was reading about adverbs and I saw this sentence
Je t'aimerai pour toujours --> I will love you forever
I though the infinitive Te/t' would only follow sentences with Tu at the start. Is there a rule around since it's about someone else the 'Je' bit at the start isn't the subject?
Is there a topic on this specifically for me to understand?
Thanks,
Max
is 'Titanic a été sorti en 1998' a possible correct answer?
If not, why not?
If so, what's the difference (compared with the correct answer given: Titanic est sorti en 1998)?

Hello,
I'd like to know why the C1 quizzes focus so extensively on the Passé Simple. The tense is never used in speaking, (except perhaps in a stilted academic discourse), and is encountered primarily when reading.
For example, on a recent C1 quiz, seven of the ten questions were on the Passé Simple. I'd rather have my quizzes focus more on idiomatic expressions. Instead, the passé simple questions come up over and over again, even when I score a perfect "10" on a given quiz.
Thanks,
Greg
I was marked wrong for typing the latter response. Is this because the subject (nous) does not change? Therefore the second part of the sentence must remain in the infinitive?
Should this prompt be "tradition has it that he or she be crowned king or queen for the day!"?
