Thought espérer does not take subjuntive.
I thought plural countries were aux so should it be 'aux Pays De Galles' instead of 'au Pays De Galles' or does Pays De Galles count as singular since it means Wales.
Should it not be: "et je vais souvent promenader dans le jardin."
rather than: "et je fais souvent des promenades dans le jardin." given as correct?
It is very disappointing that this lesson does not appear to have been modified to deal with the poor distinction over when to use le/la/l'/le with ne. ni. ni. The lesson clearly states "When using ni, you omit the article after ni, unless you're talking about general things and using le, la, l', les."
Yet much of the discussion here has suggested the article should be used for the specific rather than the general. Better and more examples of when and how to use articles are needed - yet this has clearly been an issue for years.
Why isn't feter a correct answer?
Remember Head Shoulders Knees and Toes?
Jewels, shoulders,
Knees and toys (repeat)
Ca-a-bba-age
Lice and owls
Jewels shoulders
Knees and toys!!
You’ll never be able to unhear this! (You’re welcome.)
Checking whether these words are interchangeable, or whether there are nuances we should know about:
Parfois vs quelquefois
mare vs. étang vs bassin
morceaux de tomate vs pièces de tomate
Thanks!
