Can some help me further please . Today in the news, Lionel Jospin, the ancien premier ministre said: "Le president pouvait se donner le temps de peser les risques qu'il (faisait prendre au pays)". Is faire prendre a locution? in word reference, I can't see it mentioned. Are there any lessons on faire usage as locution. thanks for your help.
This phrasing is not how a native English speaker would say this. I think “ Nantes was France’s best city for cycling” would be clearer. As is, it sounds like the city rides bikes.

The question:
Jeudi, elle a un rendez-vous. Tu veux dire ce jeudi ou ________ ?
I filled in 'le prochain', but was marked as wrong. I get that Kwiziq is trying to teach this lesson in particular but doesn't this also work?
Thanks
why is it 'elle faisait son jogging' and not 'elle faisait DU jogging' ?
Why is this marcher and not aller à pied since it is contrasted by another method of travel?
J’AI FAIT BEAUCOUP D’ERREURS, MÊME SI J’AVAIS ÉTUDIÉ LA PLUPART DES POINTS DE GRAMMAIRE. MERCI BEAUCOUP POUR CETTE LEÇON ET AUSSI POUR L’OPPORTUNITÉ DE POSER DES QUESTIONS.
Bonjour,
I recently did an exercise where I learnt about when colour adjectives stay the same in French, e.g. "When the colour is described by a phrase containing two or more words". The phrase was "la veste bleu canard".
Here though the word "blanches" does agree with "pages" and "alternées", which I thought were the words "blanches" is describing.
I would just like to know the reason for the agreement in that phrase.
Merci :)
