Hello!
I am wondering why there is a '-t-' in the sentence "Où va-t-on mettre le sapin ?" Is this because it is using the reflexive version of the verb mettre? If so why do we use the relflexive mettre in this instance? Thank you.
In the last sentence, "Exactement Yvan ! Prenez votre temps et restez détendus !", the adjective détendus is plural; the previous comment was directed at Yvan. I would expect the singular détendu if the comment is directed at Yvan. Another interpretation is that the comment is directed at both Yvan and his friend or perhaps others in the group. It is a bit ambiguous. Do you agree?
Le temps
But
La mi-temps ?
Please confirm
"ce sont des filles"
I think in the second section of this lesson which is great on its own, more auxiliary être verbs could've been used besides aller.
Asked to translate “I will pick you up at 5pm Saturday “, I wrote “ Je te chercherai à 17 heures samedi”. Apparently this is incorrect, the correct response being, “ Je passerai te chercher à 17 heures samedi”. What was wrong with my answer?
La jupe de claire, c'est ......
A- chère
B- cher
In English I think I'd be more likely to vocalise 2+2 = 4 as "two plus two is four" than either "equals" or "makes". Would saying "deux plus deux est quatre" sound odd in French?
