Bonjour à tous!
Le substantif "science fiction" s'écrit-il avec ou sans tiret? Dans mon dictionnaire Larousse, c'est écrit avec un tiret. C'est un petit détail, mais je préfère être certain. Merci!
When do you use leur and lui like which is it used for?
Demain, je vais visite ma famille en Louisiana pour le célébration du Mardi Gras. On va celebrate ensemble.
The sentence, "Pourtant, elle le méritait vraiment", refers to something in the previous sentence, which is "Surya n’a jamais gagné de médaille d'or aux Jeux Olympiques, ce qui est vraiment dommage." The 'le' is used instead of 'la' because it refers to gaining the gold medal, a masculine reference, as opposed to "la médaille d'or", a feminine reference. Is that the correct interpretation as to why 'le' is used ?
"Vous alliez vous rejoindre…" Is this construction because the subject pronoun stays with the infinitive? Is something lost if you say "vous vous alliez rejoindre…"
Are there stressed pronouns for "us/they"?
Hello,
In the sentence 'il y avait de petites huttes aux fenêtres desquelles de minuscules visages hirsutes avaient l'air préoccupé.'
Is it possible to replace desquelles with dont?
I've seen the use of ne (without pas etc). I've seen it with the subjunctive but also I think in another context. What does this mean and when do you use it?
I wrote préférerais, but it was corrected to préfèrerais. I looked up the dictionaries, and the former is given a s correct.
