The guidance says 'any object is placed between the de and the infinitive' so I'm puzzled as to why the example given doesn't end 'avant d'une solution trouver' instead of the given 'avant de trouver une solution'. Merci!
The lesson says that apparaitre and naitre and derivatives use etre in the passe compose. But in the Test, the rabit disapeared from the hat uses avoir.
I noticed that for the two verbs that have to do with thoughts croire and savoir, the example phrases are negated. Are you able to use these verbs in positive sentences with passé composé or is it more appropriate to use the imparfait since it’s hard to know how long and how many times something was thought or believed?
If I am talking about clothing that I own, but am not currently wearing, do I still use the definite article?
For example “La veste est sur le canapé” or “Ma veste est sur le canapé” ?
What is the meaning of the ‘t’ in the phrase ‘ouvre-t-on’?
I've been marked wrong for using - Il est dix-neuf heures et demie. - for 7.30 PM
But it's shown as acceptable in the lesson above.
Why?
I hope a grammar lesson based on character traits chart with gender and number
