The answer to the imperative of this sentence is given to be "Ne te lave pas". Why isn't it "ne te laves pas"?
I'm still a bit confused. To change the sentence "Il ne veut pas me parler" to passé composé, it would be "Il n'a pas voulu me parler." Right? But we had an example in class that was: "En classe, la prof vous parle (à toi et aux autres élèves)?" In our response, we were supposed to change it to negative passé composé. The answer our instructor gave was "Non, en class, la prof ne nous a pas parlée." I'm not understanding why it wouldn't follow the structure of the first example and be "Non, en class, la prof n'a pas nous parlée." Could you please shed some light on the differences in sentence structure between this response and the first example, and what the rules are? Thanks in advance.
Why does the final sentence, "Plutôt fuir que d'être pris la main dans le sac," utilize être in "d'être pris" vs avoir like in "d'avoir pris." ???
Can someone give me examples of se régaler in sentences please? and deguster?
Why do you say je ne joue pas du piano instead of je ne joue pas de piano? Is this correct and if so why, please?
I have done the test several times still have mistakes in adjectives.
One of the sentence does not make sense for me or let us say could not understand what does it mean,
un orge grand comme une maison,
if I consider grand irregular adjective and commes before maison but the answer was wrong ! Can you help me understand why it is wrong and what does this sentence mean in English.
merci beaucoup
