In this sentence, "Cette-fois-là, je retins ma joie jusqu'à ce que je fus sûr", they did not use the subjunctive after jusqu'à ce que. Just wondering why...
how can I pronounce "dont" correctly, I can't differentiate between it and "dans"?
the statement was just je....... rentre, as there was nothing(chez,dansetc) after rentre i used avoir but it was wrong, so why is there sometimes nothing after rentrer when used with etre?please
Great lesson but didn’t see it til I failed a test question:(. Is there a way to find new lessons easily if one has already gotten 100% on all existing lessons? Merci
"J’ai commencé par laver et changer les draps, ce qui n’est pas une partie de plaisir toute seule"
I don't understand "toute seule" here. It appears to be behaving as an adjective, not an adverb.
If it is an adjective, what is it supposed to be agreeing with ?
Does Tout ce dont also have the same meanings - [everything that/ all that], or is there any additional meaning to it?? Please confirm. Also a few examples would be great.
'anything that' is also an additional meaning?
(of course that the context will differ with the inclusion of de in 'tout ce dont', than 'tout ce qui' and 'tout ce que')
In the writing challenge "At Uncle Robert's 70th birthday" we are asked to translate "when I'm done with all that".
The suggested answers both use "en". E.g. "quand j'en aurai fini avec tout cela".
I wonder why "en" is required? I expect it to replace "de qqch" but in this sentence isn't that role - specifying what is being finished - supplied by "avec tout cela"?
Is there a lesson on Kwiziq that gives an example of this usage? It is not really included in En can replace de + [phrase] (French Adverbial Pronouns)
