Hello there, may I ask when/is there a rule for the use ‘in’ dans/en? Thank you
I'm confused about feminine nouns Do you have an office to take a look
... s'il vous plait.
Hello!! I would like to know if we could use both "dans l'après-midi" and 'l'après- midi" when we want to say, "in the afternoon." Also, in the morning in French, we don't use "dans" correct? The same for "in the evening"?? Merci beaucoup !!! I look forward to the answers.
This is a technical issue. Listening to the full text playback for this exercise, often when I press pause the playback continues, or continues then stops randomly, or continues with an overlap delay. I have the same problem with all of the full text writing exercise playbacks. Am I doing something wrong?
What is the rule for capitalisation here? The Cirque in the first line is capitalised but in the last line is marked incorrect when capitalised.
Surely for cars that are "theirs" that is plural and should be "les leurs"?
Should there not be an apostrophe "their's" to denote a single person and therefore allow "la leur"?
I’m finding this unexpectedly hard! Not least because to "love" a thing is usually just a hyperbolic way of saying you "really like" it. (Apart from things you personify eg a childhood toy). Also, for written aimer + thing, how can I tell if it’s love or like?
Looking up the word for 'cooking pot' in Collins dictionary, I found two translations: 'une casserole' and 'une cocotte'. I am familiar with 'une casserole' being used more specifically for a 'saucepan' so I used 'cocotte'. I had completely forgotten about 'marmite', but was reminded of it after seeing it for the first time in many years - and, it makes complete sense.
My question: Is 'cocotte' incorrect here, and if so, how would it be used?
Merci !
