French language Q&A Forum

I have a question in these two sentences: 1. Tu ne me le donnes pas. 2. Tu ne la lui écris pas. What is the correct order of indirect pronoun and object pronoun? In the first sentence, it seems that the order is indirect(me) + object(le), but in the second one, it becomes object(la) + indirect(lui). Is there anything wrong here? Or both are correct, that this order doesn’t matter?

Why is it c'est here and not il?
Tu aimes le violet ? Oui, c'est très joli!

Bonjour! Pourquoi cette phrase elle ne s'utilise pas le subjonctif?:

Avant même que nous n'entrions dans le village pittoresque,...

Can I say "en profiter le plus" for "make the most of it", instead of "en profiter au maximum"?

I’m sure the speed was intentional, but it was a difficult listen! I still can’t catch the de in "prendre de tes nouvelles" (tho knew it ought to be there) nor the dès in the last sentence.

Why is it "des" here, when there is (presumably) only one Martine?

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

I don't understand the construction of " j'avais des démangeaisons ".  What is the role of "des"?  It looks like a preposition between an auxiliary verb and a main verb.  Or is "démangeaisons " a noun?  It certainly looks like a verb.  Thanks for any help.
