Can anyone explain why the subjunctive 'puisse' is used here?
This question doesn't direct us to use a specific verb. It only gives us the english "to hate" so why can't we use hair? Sorry can't figure out the accents on my keyboard.
It seems illogical that the French have chosen to say: « Que nous voulions » and « Que vous vouliez » (which are the same as l’imparfait) instead of « Que nous veuillons » and « Que vous veuillez » which IMO would fit in much better with the subjunctive theme.
i want to know the difference between " interview, reportage, et entretien" thanks. Great page, very useful!
Bonjour , J'habite a' Toronto ! est-ce la bonne façon
I want to learn how to read french and speak fuently
The expression "to make new sandals" is "faire de nouvelles sandales"
To say I have new sandals made, the correct answer is "Je me fais faire de nouvelles sandales" but I don't understand why it is a reflexive verb. I would have thought the answer is "Je fais faire de nouvelles sandales"
I saw "paraître" followed by the past participle and not the infinitive in A Day In The Countryside.
"qui paraissaient occupés" was the answer while I had offered "qui paraissaient s'occuper"
Can you advise ?
In a qwiz you were supposed to fill in the blank: "Qui est cet homme ? - ______ Marc Duprée." I left that one blank, and when I went into the corresponding lesson, it didn't seem to explain why "C'est" is used in this sentence. The lesson says that when être + determiner + noun or pronoun are used, then you're supposed to use "c'est". It didn't mention anything about proper nouns, which is what "Marc Duprée" is.
Hi Kwiziq, please consider not breaking up full sentences. It makes it harder to figure out what's being said because we would have forgotten the context/previous phrase in the sentence/statement. Thank you.
