French language Q&A Forum

The answer provided is "C'est Marc Dupré."

Why? I would have thought the answer should have been "Il est Marc Dupré." 

Is this a special case when using c'est? Use it for stating a person's name?

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.

the sentence remain the same or changes to l'une est ..... et l'autre......PS confirm

so I used the p.c.

I keep messing up on the possession concept. The lesson covers possession using proper names, but does not mention rule for non-proper noun, example, the girl's pen (unless I missed something). The correct way is apparently the pen of the girl, le stylo de la fille, and not le stylo de fille. Can you add a note to the lesson to accentuate this, such as found on Lawless site, https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/possessive-de/

In the sentence "Fiona est la fille que nous avons invitée" - Can it also be translated that Fiona is the girl who invited us (nous as us)?

Please help

Why un parfum rather than une saveur?

I would love to be able to  REPLAY short segments of this piece so well delivered by Gruff. This way, I can practice words and shorter sections at a time until I gain confidence with both pronunciation and meaning.  I was disappointed to find, that I was committed to hearing the play in its entirety (which is quite long), with only pauses available. 

Thanks Kwiziq for ending my search for reading and listening material online.

Nicole, I do not see a ‘vocabulary themes’ tab. Where is that?
