I presume there is some simple reason but it would seem that nouveau would normally go first?
In Le Seigneur des Anneaux , Galadriel says « Et l'Anneau de pouvoir a eu sa volonté propre ». From the context it is exceedingly clear that she means “ And the Ring of Power had its own will.”
Was this a bad translation pour the French version of the film, or can one use propre in this way if the context is clear?
Could garder instead of tenir be used to "Keep a diary"
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!
I came across this sentence in a French text book. " Elle m'a beaucoup aidée quand je suis arrivée ici." The speaker was female. Why is there agreement of aidée when the auxillary is avoir? Also is arrivée agreed as the clause uses etre? Thanks in advance.
