and when do you use malgre lui
How do I know which one to use? If I want to say “he needs to go grocery shopping” (for example), are “il doit faire ses courses” and “il faut faire ses courses” equivalent or is there some nuance that doesn’t come through in English?
If these are indeed interchangeable, why doesn't this lesson just say that? Please be clear, as in the tests it doesn't seem to be the case.
why does the voice change... it jumps scared me! also are the voices the same from doulingo
My quiz has the answer for this as "Vous vous êtes caché dans le placard" I don't understand why it is cassé and not cassés . I know agreement for reflexives can be complicated but this doesn't seem to be one of those cases.
In the last sentence, "Bien que la nature soit l'élément principal dans mes projets artistiques, mon but est d'amener les gens à faire une pause, à réfléchir et à ressentir des émotions à travers mon travail.", the verbs amener à and inciter à were accepted for ”to get”. I tried persuader de, which was not accepted. Should it be a possibility ?
The second hint through me off a bit. As I recall it was something about paying attention to Hélène, which I interpreted as to pay attention to a feminine agreement,. This caused me to change my initial idea of using passer as "j’ai passé" to instead use the reflexive se passer as in "je me suis passée". I am easily swayed.
Hi,
I really enjoy learning but there is one aspect I didn't quite understand. If I have choosen my own adventure, how do I go back?
For example, I "finished" A0 and have an A1 score of about 70%. If I now take an A0 quiz, kwizbot will fill my studyplan with A0-lections.
How can I tell quizbot to evaluate my learning progress and continue to help me progress on my actual level?
Best regards
Martin
Normally when you explain how a verb works, you give examples of every ‘person’ - 1st, 2nd & 3rd in both singular and plural. In this example you have not listed the 3rd person plural and I think it might be an oversight: https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/my-languages/french/tests/results/18797378/system?quick-lesson-popup=2
Il ne s’occupe jamais de rien
What is the rule that requires either de or à, as seen in the above sentences?
