can i use bientot with future proche. 

i am soon going to buy a new car.

Je vais bientot acheter une nouvelle voiture.

is this correct or should i simply say. 

Je vais acheter une voiture.

To "Je suis partie ________ jours."

I answered "...pour une quinzième de..."

Is it incorrect to say "partie pour une quinzième de.."  ?

Why Couldn't we tell Dans l' Yorkshire ?  '' 'Y'is a semi vowel right ?

By GDP La Californie as of 2018 is 50% richer than Le Texas.  (Probably why so many French people live in L.A.!)

By median income Le Texas doesn't even make the Top 10.  The top 3 are 1. Le New Hampshire  2. Le Minnesota 3. Le Hawaii.

Just thought you would like to know ...  :- )

The correct kwiz answers indicate "Bien sûr qu'on se déteste!" translates to both "Of course we hate each other!" and "Of course we hate ourselves!"

These English translations have different meanings -- i.e., "I hate you and you hate me" versus "I hate myself and you hate yourself."

My question:  does the French sentence also imply these two distinctly different meanings?

Bonjour à tous,

Could someone explain why these verbs aren't ever used in the imperfect ? I realize there are alternative verbs that can be used, but am just curious about the reason. 

Merci !
