French language Q&A Forum

I received a question to translate "You're laughing while looking at me." where the correct answer is "Vous riez en me regardant." 

Doesn't regarder mean "to watch" and voir means "to see"?

Wouldn't "looking" in this case mean "en voyant"? 

Thank you for your help. 

Puis-je avoir    why not apostrophe j' ?

I thought that se rappeler does not require a de preposition unless it comes before a verb.  Why does she say "Je m'en rappelle ..." in the last sentence and not "je me le rappelle ....?"  Merci !

Hi, do you have a lesson/primer on the various accent marks used over letters, including how they are pronounced and when to use them? I have tried several searches on the site and cannot find it. 

I find this topic confusing, and it trips me up in the lessons.

Thanks, Larissa

Can anyone explain why the subjunctive 'puisse' is used here?

you reference a video without giving a link to it!

Please help me understand why the response in the following example  isn't "J'en pense la plus grande bien!" Is "plus grand bien" a colloquial and unmodifiable phrase? Merci !

I didn't finish this exercise the first time round. I've come back to it - a long time later - but unfortunately it doesn't remind me which words/phrases to look up in advance, so had to guess all of them! Please could you do a reminder for when this happens?

I want to learn how to read french and speak fuently
