Is récupérer interchangeable with acheter? Can I use récupérer for clothes shopping?
e.g. Je vais récupérer une robe
Honestly instead of making like 5-6 different articles about all the prepositions for to/from different places, why wouldn't you make a single article with a chart summarizing all of them?
It's a confusing topic, and it's expressed horrendously here on this website in an unnecessarily convoluted manner.
why not:
Ils l'ont dessinés eux-mêmes.
I thought "ignorer" was one of those false friends and actually meant "not to know" rather than "ignore".
Can you clarify? Thanks.
How would it work with this? Avoir or être?
In a lot of the French sentences on Kwiziq, the stress sounds like it is on an odd part of the sentence and I can't figure out the pattern. For example, in "Tu te laves les mains?" above, the word laves is stressed in the recording. And the voice doesn't rise at the end like I would expect for a question. Is that how the question would really be spoken in French? Is there a section here that explains which parts of a sentence are normally stressed?
