Hello...for the future with reflexive verbs, can we say - tu vas te faire couper les cheveux, nous allons nous faire faire les ongles etc?
How about:
Tu te feras couper les cheveux...? You are will have your hair cut....? Does that work?
Merci beaucoup!
Shouldn't both "c'est" and, "elle est" be correct answers, since the question is ambiguous about whether it's asking, "do you like school [in general]" or, "do you like _the_ school [which you attend]?"
Hi, so i'm reading exercises du style and there´s the following phrase: l'autobus est arrivé. Alors j'ai monté dedans. Wouldn't the être variant be appropriate here?
Why was "il ferait du soleil" marked as partially correct (as opposed to
"il ferait beau")?
Hello! I still don’t get what this quote in the lesson means:
“Note that for regular -IR verbs, the je/tu/il/elle/on forms of le Passé Simple are exactly the same as for le Présent. The context will help you know which tense is intended in thoses cases.”
Is the point being made that “Je dormis” both carries the meaning “I slept” as well as “I sleep” or “I am sleeping?”
Why is ce matin-là preferable to cette matinée and why is the latter not acceptable? I thought that if you wanted emphasis on the morning, you would use matinée vice matin. I realize that the là added to matin certainly adds the focus, but why is cette matinée not given as another possibility. As you may have already surmised, I struggle with these masculine / feminine forms for morning, day, evening, year, etc. despite having reviewed the lesson. Thanks for your guidance in advance.
