French language Q&A Forum

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!

I always have difficulty deciding whether it should be 'leur' or 'leurs' in these circumstances. I opted for 'leurs' this time and it was marked right - both ar accepted here! But thinking about the logic, it seems to me that it should have been 'leur': There are lots of friends, but each of them just has one family - so 'leur'.

Or am I barking entirely up the wrong tree here ?

je chérirai toujours la nuit... why we use futur simple of chérir here?

Sur votre gauche, vous verrez des panneaux qui vous montreront le chemin de la place. 

Can we say 'à votre gauche'? thanks in advance. 

Why does magnifique come after the noun in "J'ai vu des endroits magnifiques." but before the noun in "Tu as acheté de magnifiques vêtements."

If this is the beauty, age, goodness, size rule, wouldn't magnifique be classified as beauty or goodness for both? It must be a different rule I've forgotten about!

We say «J'aime LES fleurs MAIS je dessine DES fleurs.»

Why?

How do l know when to use de in the sense of some although it isn't necessarily expressed in the English sentence eg je mange DE la confiture = l eat /am eating jam or perhaps peu d'élèves ?

Why do we say j'en ai .... When we also have "de cette période".  Why use the pronoun en when the thing we are replacing is still there.  Eg j'ai plus qu'assez de cette période. In english it sounds like , I have had more than enough of it, this period of..... Is that correct ?

Regarding the section "Case of 'à la maison' vs. 'chez moi' ": Would it be correct to use "à la maison" to refer to second and third person subjects when returning to their own homes, e.g. "Elle rentre à la maison" for "She is going back home", or "Tu rentres à la maison" for "You are going back home", etc.?

(The example given for "à la maison" used the first person (je) only and the next section describes subjects going to other people's homes, and not their own). 

Merci en avance! 

Hello!  Why is bain plural here with an s?  I would expect there would only be one bathroom to each hotel room.
