"It is twenty-five past nine." The answer: Il est neuf heures vingt-cinq. But why isn't "Il est vingt et un heures vingt-cinq" a valid answer?
Hi,
This sentence has not been fully recorded, it is missing below.
"parrainage", est une procédure
And, where is the word "hold" in this translation:
Although some elected officials concurrently hold several offices,
Bien que certains élus de la République cumulent plusieurs mandats,
thank you
when tested on a multiple quiz the selections were 'Moi et toi avons compris la même chose.' or Toi et moi avons compris la même chose.' I chose Moi et toi and was incorrect.
Hello team.
In the writing challenge, 'when my dad and I would get up at the crack of dawn', is translated as 'où mon papa et moi nous levions aux aurores' .
Please explain why the reflexive is not used here as in 'où mon papa et moi nous nous levions aux aurores' ?
After all, the verb 'se lever' is reflexive, right?
Thank you
Are these both correct? Interchangeable?
Elle court plus rapide que moi.
Elle court plus rapidement que moi.
Hi, I have a question. The level A0 tests check "J'habite à ..." as correct, while lessons and tests in A1 level use dans le or en like "Marie habite dans le Minnesota". I can't see the difference on when should I use the à or dans le - en.
The rule with c'est vs il/elle is that you are speaking of a specific item. In this lesson one of the examples doesn't appear to follow that rule:
The lesson translates "Is it a second-hand car?- No, it's new." to "C'est une voiture d'occasion? - Non, elle est neuve."
Why doesn't the question use Elle instead of C'est? They are talking about a specific car--i.e. the one purchased by the speaker.
Should it not be “Pour cet après-midi” ?
In ‘ Quand ouvre-t-on les cadeaux? ‘ When do we open the presents?
where does the ‘t’ come from?
