French language Q&A Forum

Salut! Thank you for this wonderful platform for studying French! I have one issue to share: I am an A0/A1 learner. One of the quiz questions "Who is speaking?" was asked regarding this sentence: "Je suis acteur." My reponse was "Both of them." However, when reviewing the corrections, it stated that my answer was "Michael" and the correct answer was "Both of them." I tripled checked and I did input the correct anwer each time. I just wanted you to be aware.

Thanks, again!

Hello, could one use incontestable instead of imparable? Thanks

Thanks, Jim & Chris:

Could you use the present participle?  J'ai vu SS descendant(e?) d'une limo...

or would that require the english being:   I saw her... 'getting out of'  vs  'get out of'   ?    Or just be incorrect?

if ok, is it considered an adjective which needs to agree ?  (with ss)

more examples using infinitive, please....

thanks again

Alexis

Si triste, mais si vraie.  En mort, apres les combats, les combattants, autrefois ennemis, ont plus en commun que leurs frères en la vie.   

One of the questions has the reply alternative: D'ici le temps que nous trouvions une solution, il sera trop tard. This was considered incorrect.

However, Reverso has loads of examples where "D'ici le temps que + subj." is translated as "By the time that". So, any reason why this doesn't work here?

d'ici le temps que ces dispositions soient mises en oeuvre -> by the time this is implemented

d'ici le temps que ton bébé ait le même âge que Samuel  -> by the time your baby is Samuel's age

etc., etc
