question required this answer for i need three eggs, why not j'ai besoin de, please
When ‘Tu aides moi’ becomes ‘aide-moi’, the ‘s’ in the verb ‘aide’ is lost, as in the other example sentences. Does that mean that in affirmative imperative sentences the verb is conjugated in the ‘il/elle/on’ form?
Thank you!
This is perhaps a bit off topic since it isn't about the French grammar point at hand, but the tip regarding the English construction is inaccurate. It says "Whereas in English, you will need to use a subject pronoun after than (... than I (do), you (do), he/she (does)...)". I know there are people who think this is a real rule, but it isn't how anyone actually speaks, and many dictionaries (e.g. Meriam-Webster's) acknowledge the use of object pronouns here.
I received this question in a quiz: "Les femmes travaillent: ________ lavent et les autres cuisinent."
Isn't "quelques-unes" another correct way to say "some of them?"
