"Faisant le mur" ... une métaphore intéressante!
The full text says office DU tourisme, and my de was corrected to du. I thought it was de and the admittedly unreliably Google translate says de ... but even the vocab list at the beginning of the lesson says de. Merci.
In english, if someone is upset, or if something's going on, i might ask "what is it?". I'm not exaclty asking the meaning of something but im wondering about a situation if that makes sense.
So would the french translation in that scenario be "c'est quoi/qu'est-ce que c'est"? Or does that only refer to a noun.
I hope I'm making sense.
In this text we have : une petite Margarita , une grande pizza Quatre Fromages, and une petite Hawaïenne.
On the internet I am seeing a mix of Pizza names with capitalisation and without capitalisation (in French).
Should they be capitalised, or are both capitalised and uncapitalised names acceptable ?
Thanks
Paul
In the line: "je vais y aller maintenant" why is the "y" included? I thought near future was just aller + infinitive. This also does not seem to be following the rules for "y"as an adverbial pronoun. Thanks!
For the question ""Je suis très vieux." The speaker is:" I have answered this as "male" but the bot is grading my answer as BOTH incorrect and unanswered. Could you advise which it is?
Je pense que « les tubes » seraient meilleures que « les hits », non ?
Most of the lessons on this site help with grammatical understanding, however this is the first lesson I’m struggling to understand. I’ve found some comments useful after being overly frustrated with getting the quizzes wrong, but I feel this article needs an update for further clarity.
I like to try to expand my vocabulary and came across the verb répartir and used it in my translation. AI Overview quotes : répartir implies a more active process of distributing or sharing out, while "diviser" is more about the act of dividing itself. What’s your opinion ? I acknowledge that this is an A2 exercise and perhaps répartir is a little bit highfalutin but is it acceptable ? Also, the hints at A2 are definitely useful.
