In this exercise, we could use faire face à qqch and affronter to express face something, and what about envisager?
Could we use this verb to express the same meaning?
Thank you.
Personally I din't like this exercise at all
whats the difference and which one is correct
Le chocolat plaît à Martha.
Le chocolat te plaît
it is really confusing
In the exercise "The Town of Gruyères", the translation of "Before we even entered the picturesque village," is given as "Avant même que nous entrions dans le bourg/village pittoresque,". I think it should be 'nous sommes entrés dans ...'. What am I getting wrong there? Also, I'm aking my self, does an optional 'ne explétif' go before 'entrions'?
I thought that the inclusion of ni … ni in this answer meant ‘neither Sam nor Paul’ not just ‘Sam and Paul’. Am I mistaken?
Can you please share the rule regarding placement of 'Ne...Aucun/Aucune' in Compound Tenses?? It does not seem to follow the regular rule. It would be great if it is also added to this lesson.
Cheers
Matt

Well done!I walk along the canals,
The best answer is:Compare your answerJe me promène à coté dle long de ses canaux,
You could also say:je me balade le long de ses canaux,
Or also:je marche le long de ses canaux,
Just a quick question. Is qu’est-ce que + noun always more formal? I found it a bit confusing that
a. the last two examples of it in Section 3 have no further mention of register and
b. in Sections 1 and 3 the examples go from less to more elegant, whereas in 2 it’s the other way round.
Do realise this is an A0 lesson, but the concepts behind it are quite challenging.
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)?

In this question, isn't there more than one candle? I chose faiblissons instead of faiblit.
