For the sentence, "I've faced many challenges since I became a parent...", why do you use the passe compose instead of the present tense? E.g., je rencontre de nombreux défis depuis que je suis devenu parent.
Can you tell me how to decide between usage of 'de' and 'des'
for example
regarder des vidéos de chatons et de bébés
j'ai écrit
vidéos des chatons et des bébés!
2)Also how to say
(Its quite congfusing)
Is it
C'est déroutant!
Ca me confond un peu!
Merci beaucoup
referring to this sentence:
Et les au-revoirs qui n'en finissent jamais au téléphone.
How about "... jamais à l'appareil"?
I worked in a French-speaking environment where that phrase would often be used.
Why does he switch from je to on? There is no hint, up to that point, that he will be going with others.
I've seen the word weekend spelled with () & without () the hyphen in different French publications. As this is an adopted English word is there actually any guidance for how to correctly spell this or is it just a matter of style?
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.
As I know we use "en" to replace a noun that follows number/quantity such as un(e), deux, un peu de etc.. so in this case it means that I can use "en" to replace ANY noun including "idée, histoire, conseil, chance" etc but only with any indefinite article, right? And in examples like "je vais vous donner une idee" "il raconte une histoire à mon ami" these nouns can be also replaced with "en", right? or not? why? I passed several tests where these nouns were replaced with COD(le,la,les) and I really can't understand why.. can someone explain it to me, please?
D'Houstan ou de Houstan?
Car H mute est une voyelle....????
J'ai écrit je fais des choses variées au lieu de différentes?
Çà marche?
Merci
Bonjour,
Comment faut-il dire "not again" si ce n'est pas "pas encore"?
