I used Nous ne pouvions pas être plus heureux...why is this wrong?
Why is She had eaten all the cake! wrong for Elle a mangé tout le gâteau!"..
.. in English it is something that has happened.. an event and does not demand the plusvque parfait.
Am I right in thinking that once you have reached 100% at a level, you can continue practicing with the tests to improve beyond 100%? Is that better than moving onto the next level, which in my case would be C1
The turkey was so burnt that he had had to get another one. Isnt the part after the that subjonctif?
Why "déménager dans"? In general I have been told that "on déménage d'une maison et emménage dans une autre"
In the first sentence Emma: Today I am visiting Gérard’s House your answer is Aujourd’hui je visite la maison de Gérard.
I thought visite is for museums, not peoplés house. For people we should use rendre visite. Please explain
Also, la maison de Gérard, = chez Gérard?
Why is it that the ending /s/ in "boutiques", in this sentence "mais toutes les BOUTIQUES EN ligne sont en rupture de stock", is not pronounced before the next vowel /e/ in "en"?
So it was pronounced like /boutiQUE-en/, rather than /boutiqueS-en/ which is what I expected.
Is it just a style? I find it hard to know when I'm supposed to pronounce the /s/, or /x/ at the end of a word if it comes before a vowel, and when I don't.
I thought the marking was a bit odd as I have underlined the words I got wrong and one was a verb avertir I used in lieu of prèvenir?
- Bonjour Sandra ! J'ai besoin de ton aide. - Qu'est-ce que je peux faire pour toi ? - Je dois partir(quitter) à midi parce que ma fille est malade. Est-ce que tu peux prévenir(avertir) Jean-Pierre ? - Pas de problème ! J'ai une réunion avec lui avant mon déjeuner avec Marielle. - Merci beaucoup ! Lucie a de la fièvre et je suis un peu inquiète. - Je comprends. À demain !Find your French level for FREE
