Correct ??

«C'était tellement amusant qu'il y est retourné plus tard.It was such fun that he went back later! Note that in each case where être is the auxilliary, the verb retourner is followed by a preposition (en, sur, dans, à etc.).  

So, in these cases retourner is usually about going back somewhere, or returning somewhere.»

I think the explanation needs a little expansion - considering it is contradicted by the example immediately preceding it.

Bonjour Aurélie

I was doing an exercise that asked me to choose between pronom relatif simple or composé. I'm confused which one to use here.

La question........ j'aimerais une réponse est la suivante : où allons-nous ?

can I use que here?

Sorry, I didn't read the explanation carefully. It's all confusing!!

This lesson is about the expression ‘faire exprès de’ + infinitive. My question is whether the word ‘exprès’ can also be used directly after other verbs to equally mean ‘on purpose’. For example, in the examples above is it possible to say “mon petit frère a cassé exprès ma poupée” and “j’ai renversé exprès mon verre” to mean the same things as “mon petit frère a fait exprès de casser ma poupée” and “j’ai fait exprès de renverser mon verre” ? 

Why Couldn't we tell Dans l' Yorkshire ?  '' 'Y'is a semi vowel right ?
