I understand that what was wanted was, « Rien ne s’est passé », and that this is correct. But is it not also correct to say « Il ne s’est rien passé »? (I think I got this alternative from the Pimsleur program.)
There is something odd about this question and about the claimed correct answer. You pose the question using the 'old' form of the verb (s'asseoir) but accept as correct ONLY a response in the 'modern' form (s'assoir). Now I don't have a problem with mixing and matching the 'old' and 'new' forms of the verb, but I think we should be consistent. A question based on the 'old' form of the verb should surely accept as correct a response using the same 'old' form of the verb.
I am confused. Why is "à Lille" understood for the first clause but included in the second clause.
Le premier train part à sept heures moins le quart, et il arrive à Lille à huit heures.
The first train to Lille leaves at quarter to seven, and it arrives in Lille at eight.
Why is 'le' in this sentence?
Also in "J'en vaux vraiment la peine !" in the lesson, why "J'en vaux..." instead of "Je vaux ..."?
Hi,
In which cases do we use "parmi" and in which cases do we use "d'entre" ?
Thanks!
Hi,
I know in each example I do, you want me to focus on a grammar point . Sometimes, I need to read further more the other grammar points. How can I find them on your page. For example, your sentense is :” Nous (“ voir “in le présent) tant de belles choses!”. In this case , I would like to learn about the use of “tant”. Where can I find this? Thanks,
what's the difference between the two please? I saw "tu peux y goûter?" which clearly took the preposition a but I would've said "tu peux le goûter?" Google hasn't helped me!
