salut tout le monde!!
J'ai une doute. Quand on utilise de (avant adjectives de pluriel) le sens de phrase, par exemple, l'anglais- I buy -some sheets. n'est pas; mais le traduction donnée n'est pas raison. tout fois, Je regarde de belles collines -Il doit traduire l'anglais- "i am watching some beautiful hills" ce qui n'est présent dans cette options. vous pouvez expliquer, sil-vous-plait
Bonjour Madame Cécile !
The verb “éviter” as was asked in a quiz stated-
Oui, évitons-.......... une situation embarrassante !
(Yes, let’s avoid them an awkward situation !)
The accepted answer stated - leur as opposed to les (answered by me)
So is it that the correct expression is-
Éviter à quelqu’un -> To avoid someone ? (Indirect object pronouns)
And then about things, would one say-
Éviter quelque chose -> To avoid something ? (Direct Object Pronouns)
Merci pour votre réponse!
Cordialement, Shrey.
Is there a difference of meaning between these two words? If yes, what is it?
Why not "au-dessous de la limite de vitesse"?
It breaks my heart that due to the Trump-effect, aka his divisive rhetoric, what it means "to be an American" is not a settled debate; and it's something spreading around the world. I suppose there will always be a portion of any populous that views "patrioism" through a more "nationalistic" lenses.
Is there a list of all of the adjectives that go before the noun? I feel like there is a list somewhere that I am missing.
I echo the comments below regarding this lesson lacking clarity.
The explanation of when it IS appropriate to use 'devoir' is missing and I find it easier to just memorise the correct answers rather than try to answer them using knowledge of the grammar rules.
The following appears for translation: I'm happy she got her exam.
I am 72 year-old English speaker since birth and living in the US. I have no idea what this sentence means. Does the question writer mean to say "I'm happy she took her exam" or maybe "I am happy that she received her exam (perhaps in mail?)".
Ok, maybe I'm being a little facetious. It's January in Indiana and I'm going stir crazy....
Be that as it may, no native English speaker would ever say this. I think this calls for some rethinking. Maybe the question writer is going quietly mad in Vermont, or worse, Chicago.....
Hey! Can someone explain to me as to why we include the "à" after "pas" in this sentence? Thanks.
