What’s the difference between “je suis en train d’écouter de la musique” and “ j’écoute de la musique” ?
In a recent C1 test I was asked to complete the sentence, " Après........, ils se sont perdus."
After leaving, they got lost. I wrote, " Après avoir quitté, ils se sont perdus". My answer was marked as incorrect. Why?
In the short video, the examples of a "le haricot" as an aspirated "H" and "l'hotel" as a silent "H" are given. I really cannot hear a difference. It seems to me that "Haricot" is pronounced as "aricot" without an unaspirated "H". The same for "La hache". At least, they are not pronounced as we pronounce an "H" in the English "Help" for example. So, that's what I am asking for, some "Help".
In the exercise “La Super Chambre de ma Fille”, I filled the blank in the following sentence with the word “affiches” for “posters” but it marked my answer as Incorrect and said I should have used the word “posters”. Doesn’t “affiches” also mean posters?
elle a accroché des affiches des Avengers
hi
i'm getting confused when to use le/la and lui as a direct pronoun. I understand that le /la is he /she and lui to him or to her but is there a list of verbs which take lui as a direct translation from English is not always obvious
On the quiz for “you trust me” it rejects “tu fais confiance à moi” and seems to accept only “tu me fais confiance” as a correct answer. Why is “tu fais confiance à moi” wrong?
