In this example, I am wondering why soudainement is not used (adding "ment" to the feminine version of an adjective).
I am looking at this sentence and soudain seems to be used as an adverb/is that why no "ment". If so would you please provide me with an example where soudainement might be used? Many thanks.
On regardait les lucioles, et soudain toutes ont disparu.
Are the words 'LE rose' in the 1st sentence in the lesson, in the masculine gender because 'le rose' is used as a noun? If the answer is yes, are all colours used as nouns masculine?
The lesson says that with ça or cela, the word is after the verb trouve, and when there's an object pronoun le, la, les, etc, the pronoun goes before the verb. Isn't cela an object pronoun? Why wouldn't "I find it..." be translated "Je le trouve..."?
Merci, Craig
As I understand the lesson, faire du/de la is used for habitual activities and joue à is used for ongoing or current activities. Is this wrong?
If not, how come "Elle joue à la natation." is wrong for "She goes swimming"?
The lesson has "Tu fais de la natation" as an example where it means the person does this habitually/in a club or something. So wouldn't "Elle fait de la natation" mean "She swims", "She's in a swimming club" or something, i.e. that she swims habitually?
