I don't know why but I am just not able to get what the other person is saying in french. Like my listening is not improving at that pace
Il joue au golf. Why au , not du? Thanks
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.
Why here we cannot use neuf, it is a new bike so it has not been used.Futhermore it is not living things, neuf here sounds make sense.
I understand that the partative article is used for uncountable amounts. e.g. 'je mange des pâtes'. It is clear that pasta is never going to be counted, so it makes sense it would be partative des.
However if i say 'je mange des carottes', I could mean a big plate of chopped up carrots which are uncountable, which would be partative des.
Or I could mean I am eating 3 whole carrots which are definitely countable. So would this be indefinite des?
Is it the context that would define which article is used?
In the lesson on the passé composé of vouloir it says:
In Le Passé Composé (Indicatif), the meaning of vouloir is often closer to "tried".Does the same apply to the Plus-que-Parfait?
J'aime le fait que certains des Européens peuvent se moquer de ce problème.
Why is 'disputer' not conjugated here ? Also, is 'vous' reflexive here ?
