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 :)
I've a feeling I've been here before in another dictée ! I thought that it was the number (singular)[of vowels] that was present. I can't get my head round why "présentes" agrees with "de voyelles". If "de voyelles" weren't there, it would read, "..le nombre présent au tirage." "The number" is still something singular, however many things it might be encompassing, surely ?
What am I missing here?
What is the function of “y” in the phrase “y compris chez les plus jeunes …”?
"Espérons qu'ils gagnent une autre médaille d'or". Is not the intent to wish for a future happening? So saying "Let's hope that they will win another gold medal" is correct? "Espérons qu'ils gagneront une autre médaille d'or". ??
I'm at >97% on A0 and yet basically all of the questions are A0-related. Any ideas on how to move onto A1 material?
AVEC DE (du, des) vs aux Is there a rule for this?
Salade DE
Saumon AVEC DU , DES
Poulet AVEC DES
Pâtes AUX Gâteau au...AVEC glace
aux pommes AVEC crème
Plural subject (nous), a single (non-paired) body part for each person: why the singular for the body parts (la tête) and not plural? "Nous nous grattons la tête"
en tant que b2/c1, combien du texte est-ce que je suis censé comprendre ? je comprends 90% mais je n'ai pas connu les noms des pays... je devrais les apprendre ?
