I am confused with whether I should use the subjonctive in this sentence. Je suis contente que tu aies aimé l'exercice.

Je suis contente = emotion

But I know that the person loved the exercice because she already told me. So, shouldn't it be passé composé? "Je suis contente que tu as aimé l'exercice."

merci, tutu

Il est sept heures et demie du soir

Bonjour,

Why "Il est sept heures et demie du soir." is right (in the test)?

Like Debra said below: When using the 24-hour clock (13h, 14h, ...), you don't use et quart, et demie, moins le quart.

But it is 7:30 pm... and it uses with et demie... Why?

Merci beaucoup!

I think the answer is wrong...Should the translaten of "Don't go to bed yet" not be "Ne vous couchez pas encore" instead of only "Ne vous couchez pas" ? Methinks the "yet" isn't captured by the second translation. -- Chris.

Pourvu?Pourvu means "let's hope"? How does that work? It doesn't even end in -ons.

Use of 's'intéresser à'

Hi,

Could someone please help me to understand which is the appropriate way to use the verb 's'intéresser à' in the sentence 'The subject I am interested in is French'.

I have seen it used in two ways and am wondering which is correct or the most common.

1. La matière à laquelle je m'intéresse est le français.

2. La matière qui m'intéresse est le français.

Thank you :)
