I don't understand why "You're taking a walk with Greg - Tu promènes Greg." was marked as incorrect in the quiz. My dog Greg is very affectionate. Am I missing something or is the question wrong?
When you write:
In this case, tous is always pronounced [toos], to differentiate it from tout (everything)!
--do you mean in both of the following cases?
1. as pronouns to replace a pre-mentioned noun
2. as compliments to an existing plural subject
?
Merci!
This example makes sense, as we can replace Lucie et moi with nous:
Lucie et moi allons au cinéma tous les mercredis.
However, in everyday spoken French, most people use on for the first person plural as the conjugation is easier (eg: On va au cinéma), where the conjugation takes the form of the third person singular. Given this, can we also use the third person singular conjugation here? That is:
Lucie et moi va au cinéma tous les mercredis.
why? Rue is feminine. Or why not just à . Or is this another one of those times when french just works that way and there's no logical reason?
"In order to turn a sentence from active to passive voice, the tense of the auxiliary be must be the Saami have the tense of the verb hand of the active sentence.
For example:"
Ma mère est bien. Mais je crois que mon père est généralement mieux que ma mère, parce qu’il a une bonne disposition.
Vous nagez très bien. En fait, je pense que vous nagez peut-être mieux que tous les autres. Vous nagez le mieux, il n’y a aucune question à propos de ça.
Merci d'avance.
