Bonjour à tous!
The phrase is: "Après qu'ils sont arrivés et que nous les avons présentés, nous les avons laissé faire connaissance."
I have reviewed the lesson 'Special cases when the past participle agrees...' as well as, student comments going back three years, and l am stumped as to why the past participle of, "...nous les avons laissé faire connaissance" does not agree with the direct object pronoun 'les' (Stéphane and Aline). I understand that "présentés" agrees through the subordinate clause with 'que'. Why would 'laissé' not do the same with it's own direct object pronoun? ... assuming l have it right that both 'les' are direct object pronouns ... Merci!
Even though I do now understand the difference between when to use those two prepositions, I am having trouble pronouncing them. Is there a way? Is the X silent? Thank you.
Is me a direct object here. I cannot find a definition for 'se traverser'
Pourquoi dit-on "c'est un charmant jeune homme" au lieu de "il est un charmant jeune homme" ?
It sounds like he’s saying ‘ J’ai ouvert un emballage’, not ‘J’ai ouvert l’emballage’.
Kwiziq a marqué ma réponse comme incorrecte car j'ai écrit "dans ces jours-là" ...
