Somehow, I thought we always use "de" before a plural noun preceded by an adjective?
Hi guys, just a bit confused on that example
so the rule is that:adjective is placed BEFORE a plural noun,
so in that example, obviously ‘beaux’ is placed before a plural noun, so why doesn’t it mean ‘I buy SOME nice sheets’ instead of I buy nice sheets?
thanks!
Hi all, may I know what the difference is between même and comme? Thank you.
This lesson needs to be redone into more than one lesson because it's too complicated, confusing and frustrating. As soon as I finish studying it, I forget what refers to what.
Hello all,
I've seen several French expressions/phrases where there is no definite or indefinite article, where there would be one in English.
For example. C'est bon signe meaning that's A good sign, j'ai rencard avec lui meaning I have AN appointment with him.
Is there a general rule that explains this ?
Thanks,
Jean
I heard "et s'il était aussi séduisant que Dick Van Dyke" whereas your text reads "et s'il pouvait être aussi séduisant que Dick Van Dyke"
Have I misheard? I can't hear "pouvait être" in there for the life of me!
Thanks,
Ian
