Why quitter is correct answer, but not sortir ?
I found an example in the lesson where sortir is used to describe a personne leaving work at 19h
While expressing present continous tense or future simple with present tense in french, I realy get confused on when to use auxiliary etre with subject pronoun and when not to use
Just wanted to check if this is a mistake. I found this on Duolingo.
Nous ne nous sommes plus jamais parlé.
Why is the verb parlé not agreed with the reflexive pronoun?
Merci très beaucoup.
In a recent test question: "In 1515, Francis I won the battle of Marignano." the correct answer was "a gagné" and not "gagne". Why does the "Historical Present" not apply in this case ?https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/questions/view/using-the-present-tense-like-the-past
In one of quiz’s question it asks something like qu’est cet homme? And the answer is ; c’est (name of the person). I was wondering if we can say “il est…” instead of c’est. Since its asking about a particular person and while studying “il/elle est” it says if its asking about a specific thing we should use it. I need a bit clarifications please.
I saw "Il a fait les mêmes choix." in the exercise.
Here mêmes is before the noun and choix is plural. Why we don’t use de in this situation? Thank you.
Should this prompt be "tradition has it that he or she be crowned king or queen for the day!"?
Bonjour,
I was wondering about the sentence , please explain why this would not be ?
merci beaucoup

Hi
I am looking for a lesson which explains how in reflexive verbs in passe compose the past participle does not agree in gender and number with the subject if the object is indirect.
Is this an error? Or is "se maria" an actual phrase. I thought it should be "se marie".
I'm also wondering why it is not "s'est mariée". That's the phrase I would have used.
