French language Q&A Forum

Hello,

How does one know how to conjugate pronouncements like "Vive les fiancés"? My first instinct is that vivre should use the third person plural of le subjonctif here, because les fiancés is third person plural. However, is it "vive" instead of "vivent" because it is a fixed expression? Any more examples or fiches pédagogiques would be helpful, thanks!

In the example “il se fatigua vite mais ils ne fatiguèrent qu’à la fin de la  journée” is there a reason why the verb is reflexive in the first phrase, but not in the second?

The suggested answers to My favourite painting is called "The Sunflowers”, are

I have reported this beforehand, which might have been the wrong thing to do before posting to the Q&A Forum, but it seems my point was missed by the person responding to the report, so I'll try to see if this is a better place for a more fluid conversation.

I'm not a native speaker of either English(though my proficiency level is definitely not low) or French(not so good with this one yet), but it seems to me that both *I'm going to go* and *I will go* can be used for immediate future (whatever ''planning'' arrangements might be), and it's rather ambiguous in the french sentence to deduce that *am going to go* should be used over *will go*, thus to me it would seem that both variants should be accepted as viable answers.

I would be glad if somebody could clear up why one is acceptable, and the other is not.

Thank you.

Why is amener included in this example: Nous aménerons/amènerons Louise avec nous.

When is amener conjugated with anything other than an accent grave?
