Jai choisit cette expression mais elle n'était pas juste. Votre ordinateur a remplacé 'des' avec 'les'. Peut-être que vous puissiez regarder ça ?
Are all verbs strictly reflexive verbs or can they sometimes not be reflexive
In the passage, ”...nous nous sommes tous assis pour partager un festin”, I only hear one nous.
Hello. I took a level test, and now the recommended study plan is always in that level. How can I get back to the Kwizbot just making recommendations based on my brain map and not on the level I selected to test?
Hello, perhaps i missed this/am not understandng something: is there a rule for en versus de usage? eg une robe de satin or une robe en satin?
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 :)
J'ai lu trois livres dont les tiens/ les vôtres. [I read 3 books including yours.]
Is this correct? Or should it be le tien? Masculine/plural form should be used because the noun is 'les livres'?
Yes, for introducing me to some new expressions, i.e. "tu n'as pas l'air dans ton assiette", "j'ai du mal à fermer l'œil" and "de fester de marbre". Now, to try to use them!
After submitting my response, no correction page appeared and I was simply presented with the next phrase or sentence. As a result, I scored zero for my response. You can't go backwards. This happened twice during the exercise. On the second occurrence, I was particularly paying attention to not hitting the submit button a second time as I know this can cause skipping. I could not figure out how to send this to your technical team instead of bothering you.
The first two sentences of the exercise use "on" rather than "nous" for we. Why is the "nous conjugation of the imperative verb (prenons) used rather than the "on" conjugation (prend)? That is why "Prenons un selfie"... rather than "Prend un selfie"...?
