"Il rappelle son ex à Maria."
What is the translation of "He reminds Maria of his ex."?In other words, how do we know whether the possessive pronoun refers to the subject or the indirect object?
Why is "il lui faut de l'aide" - he / she needs some help and "il te faut de l'aide" - you must help? I am getting very confused with this expression!
Is it a rule to remove the definite article 'le' in Superlatives while using Possessive Adjectives?
Baptiste est mon pire ennemi.
and not 'le pire' / 'le plus mauvais' ennemi?
Or 'Il est mon meilleur ami.' - even though 'le meilleur' is not used, it is implied with Possessive Adjectives?
En avril, ne te découvre pas d'un fil
Til April's dead, don't remove a thread (of your clothing)
Why is it c'est here and not il?
Tu aimes le violet ? Oui, c'est très joli!
No matter what I do, which speaker/earphones I use, or how many times I switch the playback on my system the sound file examples SIMPLY WILL NOT PLAY. I may as well be reading a textbook and practicing mispronunciation. If I use ANY other site, including the Lawless Spanish site, ALL sound clips play with NO issues whatsoever. I bought this system with a two-year subscription. It has been a useless and costly mistake without being able to actually hear how to correctly pronounce anything. Does anyone else have this problem?
