not sure why it is not imaginée since it is a lady talking. (reflexive verb, compound tense)
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 the question...
________ retarde le train, c'est la grève.What delays the train is the strike.... I wrote "Cela qui". Why is "cela" not acceptable?
Is there any way to put the NEXT button next to the rating (smiley faces) BEFORE the lessons suggested? These dictation and writing exercises are so beneficial, but there is a lot of movement from keyboard to mouse to scroll past suggested lessons, after each small phrase. This physical repetitive movement is incredibly annoying and seems unnecessary. The best would be not having to switch to the mouse at all, that would be much more efficient ! Thanks for listening to my suggestion.
Is there a complete list of words like: des bals([dancing] balls),
des carnavals,
des festivals,
des récitals,..?
I can't find it on your site.
Thanks in advance, Jaap.
In the sentence, "A few years back, I read a book written by a New Yorker who had lived in Paris for a while, ...", I was wondering if ’pendant un moment’ would be an appropriate translation of 'for a while'. I found this in Wordreference, used it, and it was marked wrong.
If there are multiple adjectives after c’est, do they gender match the subject?
How come the above is wrong according to my latest kwiziq test? (A qui and auquel are the correct answers).
And could you have had à qui rather than auquel in the same sentence ?
I consulted Reverso for the translation of two propositions from this lesson:
1. Dinner will be served within an hour
2. Dinner will be served in an hour's time
Both produce the same french phrase:
Le dîner sera servi dans une heure
My question: why Kwizbot showed error to my translation into English that read “Dinner will be served within an hour”
