Queries pertaining to grammatical concepts Bonjour Madame Cécile !
I have been attempting tests at Kwiziq and have faced a few problems which I would like to ask here-
1. C’est le mois d’avril et il a commencé ______ faire très chaud.
Here, would the answer be “à/de” ? How to judge when to use “commencer à / “commencer de” ?
2. Regarde cet arbre sans fruits. Mais _________ qui est devant nous en a beaucoup.
Here, which of the following is grammatically accurate - celui-ci /celui ? I opted for “celui-ci” but the answer was “celui”. Why, Madame ?
3.J’ai vu quelque chose dans ton sac.
To form the negative of the sentence which is correct -
Je n’ai vu rien/rien vu dans ton sac.
This is not highlighted in the lesson- Ne ... rien = Nothing (French Negations)
4. Ces hommes parlent sans cesse.
To form a question would we write-
Qui parle/ Qui parlent sans cesse ?
Merci encore Madame Cécile pour votre aide continuel.
Je vous souhaite une bonne journée!
In the quiz "aime vraiment" was marked wrong and "aime beaucoup" was required.
As far as I can tell both are equally valid and in common use, even though this lesson does not mention "aime vraiment". And from a literal point of view, since the English said "really like" and not "like a lot" "aime vraiment" seems more appropriate.
