why does "en bon etat" not agree with the feminine house?
If I don't type with the accents that are part of French writing, will I still be understood?
I was marked wrong for soyez parti (singular). Couldn't the "vous" refer to a singular person where past participle would be parti without an s? What am I not seeing here?
I like to have models to follow, and your lesson gives the following model: Rappeler + à + person being reminded + [infinitive]
Yet your quiz question "She reminds us to take our jackets"
is given the correct answer "Elle nous rappele de prendre nos vestes"
The model suggests that 'à' is a necessary part of the correct grammer but here it would be marked as wrong. I am disappointed and confused by the lesson that offers a clear model that is not correct.
“je me sens bien”, et, “je vais bien?” Merci!
in america, there is no such thing as "i will lay the table" that literally means you are making or forcing the table to lay down. but you would not do that to an object, nor would you phrase it that way because a table cannot lay down, it stands and does nothing else. i am finding a lot of phrases that are difficult to translate because of this. i have also sought help with french speaking friends who have helped me and when i provide the answer, the platform says i am wrong and reverses the answer. such as the case with adjectives position before or after.
Statement: ...Je me sens beaucoup mieux ! Question: Tu sens une différence ?
Why does the question use sentir and not se sentir (ie, "Tu te sens...)? Is it because the statement is about feeling better ("internal" feeling) and the question is about feeling a difference (perceiving something)? Would "Tu te sens mieux ?" be a correct way to ask if someone is feeling better?
I understood that the french for ' an app' was 'une appli' but this wasn't given as an option. Am I incorrect?
Hi there - this topic is giving me the biggest trouble. Crafting questions!
Is there any advice or guidance or on how to approach this? I cannot seem to connect with this at all. Thanks!
