Pourquoi pas je me suis matée? C'est une femme qui parle.
Hi, if I was to say ‘I have been learning French since I was in school’, would I say: ‘J’apprends français depuis j’étais à l’école’ or ‘j’apprends français depuis je suis à l’école’? I am no longer in school so I’m thinking it may be the former however I’m not sure if the whole sentence needs to be in the present tense. Thanks
Pourquoi pas "une cocarde bleue et rouge"...... ?
J'ajouterais « se rejoindra » en plus de « se retrouver » et « se réunir ». :-)
This question was asked in a previous quiz, and the answer was you cannot tell the gender of the ‘“amie”. I understand that the ending e makes it a female friend, but if the question is verbalized, that is not available information. In the quiz I just took, the answer is ‘a woman’. I am confused as to how to answer this question in future quizzes, as two different answers have been given.
Why wasn't my answer Ou est correct for where is?
In the 'Fill-the-blanks' Kwiz 'Nos activites pendant les vacances', my answer: 'Les enfants essaieront la peche a pied avec un guide local' was marked wrong, with the correction provided of 'Les enfants essaierons ...' The correction Kwiziq shows is 1st person plural, but I thought that 'The kids will try shellfish gathering with a local guide' is 3rd person plural.
Au secours! Merci!
In the last sentence, "I will go there to cheer you on.", the word 'there' is translated as 'là' and the use of 'y' was not accepted. Is it just a question of emphasis? I searched for a lesson to clarify the usage of 'y' and 'là' but was not successful. I would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.
