"Allez-vous au cinéma ce soir" means:
Go to the cinema tonight!
Are you going to the cinema tonight?
To go with you to the cinema
Do we lose points for omitted commas and other punctuation? When I had dictée exercises in France the instructor/narrator always included reading punctuation marks.
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
Is the distinction the same as in English, where "the coffee" is specific to a particular coffee in the current context? And "coffee" without the article is talking about coffee in general?
Hello,
I have a tiny question. If I want to say "I thought about her", should I use:
a) Je lui ai pensée
b) J'ai pensé à lui
c) J'ai pensé à elle
Because I notice that for verb + de, we can use "penser d'elle" (think of her), so for the case verb + à, can we use à + pronouns as well (option b,c)? Can we use "elle" instead of "lui" for such case? Finally, can we use option b) instead of a)?
The lessons says to use either. Where is the explanation/lesson details?
I love these translations although they are very humbling.
Is there a simple explanation for why "de" is needed in "Tu as de la chance" but not in "La voiture à la droite a la priorité? Merci!
The sentence starting with -
Oui, le buffet est ouvert -
Do you not pronounce the second syllable of buffet?
As a paying customer of Kwiziq, I wish to be able to have a physical print out of the lessons I want to review. It's easier for me to read than from the computer screen.....
I'm confused as to why at the beginning of the exercise "Si je pouvais" is used, while at the end it's "Je pourrais". Would the conditional not be used in both cases as there's no guarantee of either action taking place, so both are hypothetical?
