From time to time, in literature, I come across forms such as "parlé-je" e.g.
"Pourquoi parlé-je de Victor Hugo?"
Is this interrogative form still in use. Is it ever used in speech (probably not) or is it reserved for literary use?
Tom
She'd been dreaming about it forever.
The correct answer was "Elle en rêvait depuis toujours." Why wouldn't this be "Elle y rêvait depuis toujours?
Wouldn't the words "about it"require "y"and "of it" - en?
Would either be accepted? It's my understanding that one means "at the end", and the other means "finally". Thank you
Please help me clarify the usage on the indefinate article in this context:
Is it the same as in English; I don't like the wine or the cheese (when offered both) Je n'aime ni le vin ni le fromage.
and, I don't like wine or cheese (in general) Je n'aime ni vin ni fromage
Thanks.
