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"...?
This was a great exercise. Just wanted to flag that sometimes after submitting responses, no corrections displayed and I was therefore unable to mark myself.
Is the first example (Examples and Resources) an error or a weird idiom?
It pulled me up (incorrectly) on my spelling of oignons with ognons.
I don't understand this
French: "Vous parlez d'autres langues"
English "Are you speaking about other languages?"
if "de" comes from "parlez", the lesson says it needs to be contracted to "des"
but here, it's just "d'"
Moi j'ai dit "une petite gorge irritée" comme j'ai vu sur WordReference, mais ce n'était pas correcte. Est-ce que c'est trop familier pour cette situation? Merci d'avance!
Isn’t there a way to imply each/every another way?: je mange une pomme le matin, ou je me promène le soir.
how does this 'nous est arrivé' come together to mean "happening to us"?
Is there any difference in meaning between the use of faire and etre contextually? Or, are they freely interchangeable?
I guess my main concern is, is there an example of a time when faire would be chosen over etre and vice versa?
