Could you explain the expression "... vous êtes tous des êtres humains" in the very first example please?
Hi - thanks for this great website. I have a question regarding y and 'la\la-bas'. I am not sure whether they can be used interchangeably? For example we could both say J'y vais ou je vais là and, if so, does it keep the same meaning? Thank you!
"They will have been happy together" doesn't make any sense in English. It is mixing future and past with no mood context. It implies that you looked in the future and could see that they had been happy in the past (which is your future). If this is a tense that cannot be translated, then it should be translated directly as a lesson.
Les villes de lesquelles Je suis venus étaient toutes uniques.
does it work like that?In regards to the sentence: Ils quittent leur travail à 19h, is the following identification of different articles of speech correct:
(subject)Ils (verb)quittent (indirect object pronoun)leur (direct object)travail (preposition)à (??)19h
I am not sure what article of speech does "19h" come under?
Elles ont tu la raison ... where is the word about in this sentence? Thanks for your help.
There is nothing in this lesson that shows or tests conjugation of 'faire exprès de' other than in passé composé, with the subtle exception of the unexplained example where il vaut ... faire appears. The sentence "Elle fait exprès d'être en retard" would be an opportunity to introduce a conjugation of faire in a form other than 'fait', and that would be helpful. Why not change it to "Elles etc" or "Nous etc"? It would be useful to have information on present and future tense conjugations - or at least a note to indicate that the reason every example is fait exprès de is that every example (bar one) is in passé composé.
I am confused about the position of adverbs because the video says they go right after the verb they are modifying but when I answered the mini quiz in that way I got 0/2
Any thoughts?
