Et pour les petits creux et autres faims de loup
To my ear the "et" in this sentence sounds like the way I would (try to) pronounce "eux". Is the pronunciation here idiomatic ?
These listening exercises are really helping me, Thanks!
At a minimum, it seems like there should be a conjunction or a que to better structure the sentence.
Anyway, can someone translate/explain this sentence?
Why is suivie made feminine in the sentence, "Ils ont passé leur samedi à flâner dans les rues de la ville, avant de rejoindre l'hôtel pour une petite séance de sauna, suivie d'un somptueux repas gastronomique" ? If it is an adjective I cannot determine what noun it is modifying.
Il va leur téléphoner.He's going to telephone themIl va appeler ses parents. -> Il va les appeler.He's going to call his parents. -> He's going to call them.
In these above examples, why are both the direct and indirect object pronouns placed in between the verbs instead of in front of both of them?
Merci.
sorry if this is a stupid question but why isn't visiter written in the infinitive form after a conjugated verb (rendre)
La fleur sent bon.
Which is the correct comparison:
Mais cette fleur sent meilleure.
Mais cette fleur sent mieux.
I have listened to this portion perhaps ten times and it seems he is saying "il vit faut qu'on". Is there some emphasis that my ear is not used to?
Why is "rapports" plural in the first sentence?
Also, in the second sentence, why is there no article before "amis" ("On était amis"), but in another sentence, there is an article ("qu'on soit plus que des amis")?
I think in informal conversations we say like -
Il est pas jeune
instead of the more formal and more 'grammatically correct' one:
Il n'est pas jeune!
Is it correct !? Responde Sil vous Plait!
