"Enfin, les amateurs d'histoire apprécieront le Vieux Bordeaux"
I thought enfin was used when an expected result occurs (foreseeable outcome) and finalement was used for an unexpected result (unforeseeable outcome). Is there a better way to keep these two words straight? In the above sentence, how would a visitor to Bordeaux know what to expect before actually seeing the city?
What position would <> take?
Why doesn't the phrase, "I wondered", not agree with the speaker? I wrote, "donc je me suis dite" but the text doesn't have the verb agree with the female speaker as it corrected me with, "donc je me suis dit".
Hi, can you please tell me why one uses the subjunctive in the above sentence. I thought that you only used the subjunctive if the subject of the main clause and the subclause were different. In the sentence above, they are the same.
Thanks

I answered ‘il faut que tu fasses ton lit ‘ which was marked incorrect. Just wondering why ? Thanks
Why is it l'an prochain and not l'année prochaine?
Why can't "ensemble" go before "à la plage"?
eg. nous sommes allés ensemble à la plage.
In the passage, "... où vous profiterez de paysages naturels magnifiques", how does one know if we are referring to one paysage or multiple paysages? If I am in a castle, I think I would be looking at one paysage around the castle.
