I thought that la peau would be an acceptable response rather than ma peau because it’s clear Marc is referring to his skin so there’s no need to use the personal pronoun?
My wife is a doctor: Can this be translated as 1) " Ma femme est une médecine . OR 2) Ma femme est médecin . Could you please let me know which one (if any) is correct, and an accompanying explanation would be appreciated. Thanks
Bonjour Madame Cécile !
The verb “éviter” as was asked in a quiz stated-
Oui, évitons-.......... une situation embarrassante !
(Yes, let’s avoid them an awkward situation !)
The accepted answer stated - leur as opposed to les (answered by me)
So is it that the correct expression is-
Éviter à quelqu’un -> To avoid someone ? (Indirect object pronouns)
And then about things, would one say-
Éviter quelque chose -> To avoid something ? (Direct Object Pronouns)
Merci pour votre réponse!
Cordialement, Shrey.
Why is 'rejoint ' used in the question: Qui te rejoint...? or 'vient' in Qui Vient manger? Can any other conjugation of the verb be used?
Is there a way to target a specific language point? For example, if I look at an explanation of a particular point, then 'notebook' it, sometimes there is a mini kwiz below, but is it possible to get more practice on one particular topic?
