French language Q&A Forum

HI The game is to connect the letters, but there are no letters to connect. There is only a circle, but no letters.

I am a tactile learner and do better writing these dictées by hand. Is it possible to do the grading (does the grading contribute to the dashboard, even?) by hand and enter the score? The language clicks better in my head writing manually vs typing and I don't want to write and then transcribe into the system. Is there also a way to simply see the transcript without going phrase by phrase?

"beaucoup des chocolatiers" is listed as the correct translation. I thought that if something followed a quantity it became "de". Thanks for clarifying this for me

I thought adverbs can only modify a verb, an adjective, or another adverb.

How come the adverb 'bientôt' is placed before the nound 'les vacances"?

Would not "préparez un bol de bouillie be acceptable?

Hi, just wanted to say that I think this is a very fun text and I loved listening to the audio, it's very authentic and sweet :)

"Nous avons mangé en une heure" does not have a correct answer.  "We ate in an hour" and "We ate in an hour´s time" are both incorrect.  An appropriate answer would be "We ate for an hour."  (American English)

I don't understand this particular line:

The context in which you could use sortir de [ville] to express to leave [city] is very specific in French (note that it doesn't apply to countries,states,regions etc). It would only refer to an action in progress

Does this mean you can't use sortir de [ville] in future/past tense (Je sortirai de Paris), but you CAN use it in other tenses with countries, states, regions, etc?

Or does this mean you cannot use it with countries, states, regions...and you can only use it with cities if it's an action in progress?

Il est quatorze heures de l' apres midi, although the l'aprés midi is unnecessary and probably incorrect, it does unambiguously mean 2pm surely?

My computer is not allowing me to type the cedilla. So I am getting all these wrong!
