Bonjour. My husband and I will be in France in a few weeks and are renting a car. We’ll be in the Dordogne region on rural roads and even after reading about it I still don’t understand about stopping for cars entering from the right. It seems impractical to stop at every intersection on a road when a small road on the right has a car. Any hints on how this works ? Thank you. I’m using Lawless to work seriously on my French but am scared about driving as I’m only around a B1 level.
After learning all A1 vocab, will I be at level A1. Does it cover all topics regarding vocab? Merci.
Plural uncountable noun
les épinardsdesTu manges des épinards.
(You eat some spinach.)This explanation is incorrect. There's no such thing as a plural uncountable noun. The very definition of a non-count noun is that it doesn't take a plural inflection. You need to explain this as a difference between what's a count versus non-count noun between the two languages. "Spinach" is non-count in English but countable in French (hence taking "des."
i WANT HOW SAY DO YOU LIVE
According to the above rule, each/every month should only be chaque mois, since "chaque" goes with a singular noun, and "tous les" goes with a plural noun. How is "mois" plural? Just because it has an "s" at the end? Very confusing. Please help!
If ‘le répondeur’ is linked to the landline, it would be known as an answering machine (in the UK)
Nous mangeons du riz in negative
In the 2nd quiz on plus-que-parfait (La soiree de mes Reves), the 4th blank from the END requires us to conjugate faciliter in the plus-que-parfait tense.
According to me, it should be : ce qui nous avions facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite); however the solutions key is showing it to be nous avait facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite).
Can you please explain why we are using the 3rd person singular form of conjugation of the auxiliary verb in imparfait (il /elle / on avait) rather than that with nous (avions) here ?
