________ arrogance est insultante.Your arrogance is insulting.HINT: Use the 'tu' form
Arrogance est une mot féminin, alors, le correct est >, pas?
Does anyone know if this is used commonly in Canadian French?
I've never come across it, or heard it!
Merci!
"Restée" is the correct past participle for a female, right?
You could program to accept both male and female answers, perhaps.
Women and girls need to get in the habit of using the feminine.
Yeah, yeah, I know that genderless is coming down the pike, but for now it is incontrovesial that women use feminite forms in French. How elegant it would be if I could write, "Je suis restée."
In the example:
Il faut qu'ils aient leur permis de conduire.
They must get their driving licence.
Avoir us used here similarly to "avoir un exam". Here it means they must 'obtain' their driver's license.
But how would you say: "They must have their driver's license (with them)"?
Context might be one way, but if 'they' was ambiguous, the imperative sentence would be ambiguous.
