Hi there,
can anybody help with why que appears in the following sentence, please? "Tu dormiras dans le meme hotel que la derniere fois". The translation I have is "will you sleep in the same hotel as last time". I've not come across que as a translation for 'as' before.
Thanks in advance.
Kieran.
Hi Kwiziq
I utilise many different resources to learn French (including Kwiziq) and at least 2 translator apps - Reverso and French English Translator which check my French words and grammar to verify my learning, before I speak, write or read. However, I often find these 2 apps give me different answers for the same phrases. In this particular Kwizik test, I became frustrated because some of my answers were marked incorrect, despite my research before taking the test.
Do you have any suggestions on which translator is the most reliable and one that Kwizik recommends? I am a Premium Kwizik member and enjoy your model of teaching, however, I need to find a reliable translator.
Thank you.
Regards Jo
The word clore jumped out at me as well. Very much enjoyed reading and listening to this exercise.
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.
The first two sentences have similar structure, a salutation followed by a question or a declaration. However, the first uses an exclamation followed by a question; whereas, the second uses a comma after the salutation and then continues making it all one sentence, If you use the first sentence's pattern, i.e. using an exclamation instead of a comma, this is marked wrong. Please explain, as this is a recurring issue.. Thanks
Can one say "le jour avant" as well ?
I have been trying to understand what “fixerent” means/where it comes from (please excuse lack of accents in my question). At first I thought the translation should be the two dogs stare or are staring at each other.I then found a conjugation table and found “fixerent” (with the accent over the e) is passé simple.I have only just been moved up to “B2” level on Kwiziq but I don’t understand how the passé simple is used and so don’t follow it’s use within this lesson.Why is it not passé compose using etre?Thanks for your assistance.
The French name of the exercise is written as ‘“My” liste de courses’
Nevermind, I think I just heard it wrong
