Ron T.C1Kwiziq Q&A super contributor

More context needed, SVPN'importe qui peut entrer chez toi ---> Anyone can come in your place I would have thought the translation to be «Anyone can enter your home.» With the translation provided, it says that «if I am unable to attend, anyone can attend in my place» like for a meeting, etc. Is this an idiomatic phrase, perhaps a UK translation? Merci en avance.

Noun ending

Hello,

I have a question. My practice sentence is she cancels the trip. My answer was Elle annule la voyage but the correct answer is le voyage.

My question is why is voyage with a masculine ? When the ending is age which is feminine.

Thanks

Nicole
