The passive voice in several examples where we needed "was sent" and "had prepared" used plus que parfait ie) était envoyé and avait préparé, but for "the students were welcomed", my use of étaient accueillis was incorrect and the correct answer was the p.c.: Les étudiants ont été accueillis was correct. This seems illogical to me. Please explain the difference.
The sentence was, "She is dividing the tasks," and we were supposed to fill in the blank with the verb "repartir." The correct answer was repartissez, but it just didn't sound right to me. I looked up the conjugation in three different places, and they all said it should be "repartez." Can you clarify this?
In the vocabulaire d'Halloween, https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/learn/theme/1201689, Trick or treat is given as "Farce ou friandise" but in the dictée the term is "Farce ou friandises". Why is treat pluralised but trick is not?
Bonjour,
J'ai deux questions sur la dernière phrase "Je préfèrerais de loin faire appel à un professionnel, et s'il pouvait être aussi..."
1. Le deuxième e de préférerais ne devrait-il pas être un é à la place de è ?
2. J'entends "et s'il était aussi...", mais selon le texte, la bonne réponse est "et s'il pouvait être aussi..." Est-ce que c'est une erreur ?
Merci !
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 !
