Can we say vous êtes mauvais professeur or vois êtes un mauvais professeur???
Hi, can you please tell me why one uses the subjunctive in the above sentence. I thought that you only used the subjunctive if the subject of the main clause and the subclause were different. In the sentence above, they are the same.
Thanks

In this sentence can't we use des amis Why d'amis
Hi! I don't quite understand the usage of à in the examples: Il le vend 3 € la livre; and Le pâté se vend à 1,25 € les 100 grammes. The verb is same, constraction is same. What's the difference? Can i use both? Thanks!
The lesson appears to focus on making a distinction between use of trouver (to find something) and trouver que (to think something). Yet in the examples the previously mentioned translation (post about a year ago) of the above remains 'he finds' not 'he thinks' and in a dashboard test today "Ils me trouvent charmant"and "Ils me trouvent que ...." were both given as being "they find me charming". Either there is a clear distinction between the 2 forms or there is not. At present the lesson quite clearly makes the case there is but the discordant examples and test answers are confusing. Edit required.
The test answers are inconsistent; sometimes dix is changed to 10 and minutes to min and heurs to h. And sometimes not! IMHO if it is written as a word in the question then it should be written as a word in the answer ie ten = dix and hours = heurs.
