Why is it l'eau du robinet rather than de robinet? On the other hand it is usually de like in résolutions de fin d'année.

My question has to do with the use of the hyphen. Am I correct in assuming that when the pronoun comes after the verb a hyphen must be added?

I thought "ignorer" was one of those false friends and actually meant "not to know" rather than "ignore".

Can you clarify?  Thanks.

Les tomates...  ce sont les dernières.

I am trying to understand why we are using ce sont les...   

Is it because of the rule that says "c'est/ce sont" before "un, le, les, and possessive pronouns"?

Thank you.

Bonjour Madame !

In the sentence of the lesson -J’ai un chien et une chienne. The audio speaks “shienn” for both words although ‘chien’ is spoken as ‘shian’ with a nasal sound I recall .

Also ‘et’ is not clear to me . Maybe because I am not a native speaker. Please clarify.

Merci d’avance !

So instead of using Je I have to use J'ai ? Am I understanding this correctly?
