French language Q&A Forum

Pour la phrase, "pendant que les adultes admireront..." j'ai dit, "tandiq que des adultes admireront..." Une correction j'ai recu etait "tandis que d'adultes admireront..." Vous pouvez expliquer pourquoi on dit d'adultes et pas des adultes? 

Merci

Je vais déposer les quelques si je comprends 😂😂😂

Judging by the comments below and my own experience of this lesson i think it could still be tweaked to improve it.  It think it would be helpful to: 

* add - write out - relevant (new to some) vocabulary for decimals, commas and currencies

* emphasise how the rules for writing numbers in French are the same (or different) when used for currencies vs other contexts

* provide and describe a few more complex examples, including the outliers (eg uncommon use of a decimal point in French), with at least one example of a French number which translates to three or more decimal points in English. The latter would be very useful because it highlights how our Eng/French translation brain can get confused (evident in these discussions) because it looks identical to the English version of numbers in the thousands.  

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.  

If reflexive verbs always use the auxiliary verb 'etre', why is it 'Quand elle m'a embrassé' and not 'Quand elle m'est embrassé' 

The partitive article isn't use here? "Jambon, fromage et pain maison"?

Thanks

The lesson says you never use dans for months or years. So if a delivery will be made in one month you don’t say la livraison sera effectuée *dans* un mois?
