More OptionsI feel like this one is lacking in options, as well, I need more clarity for my french comprehension:
A) "parce que j'aime la nourriture" wasn't a sufficient translation, although "because I love food" was the given sentence. The translations which were provided imply "I love food a lot" or "I really love food." Could more context be given other than "because I love food?"
B) "Résolue" is synonymous with "déterminée," is it not?
C) "Je vais manger équilibré" is not implicitly the same thing as "Je vais manger sainement." A balanced diet can be extremely unhealthy, (at least to my mind), as it implies eating more food groups, not necessarily less fatty or lower calorie or lower sodium foods. Are they synonymous in France?
d) "inscrire à la gym" seems to imply joining a (gymnastic) gym, while "inscrire au gym" implies a (physical fitness) gym, or am I mistaken??
Bonjour Madame,
In this quiz , there is a sentence as "surtout quand elle détache ses longs cheveux roux."
Here, I am puzzled as to why possessive adjective is used with a body part but there is a lesson which contradicts by advising to use definite articles. Is this an exception ?
Secondly, why is 'roux' used for red ? Why not "rouges" ?
Bonne journée !
Monsieur Dupont, vous vous êtes trompé.
Why do you use être here instead of avoir. Shouldn't it be 'avez'?
In the sentence, encountered in a novel:
Il ouvrait un petit bar, y prenait une bouteille et deux verres.
Why "y"? This seems to be a perfect example of "de plus location", as he is taking the bottle from a place.
Can someone elucidate, please"
Much obliged!
I can't seem to differentiate these two. Please make me understand.

I'm confused about the usage of the adverb "mieux" and "meilleur(e)". In the sentence "J'aime bien ta voiture, elle est mieux que la leur." adverb "mieux" is used, so the adverb now describes how the car *is*. So, I saw the verb "to be" being described by both the adverb and the adjective and I have no idea why it is so.
If there is a lesson for that, that will help a lot.
How can I use ni...ni to make this sentence negative: 'L'eleve a compris et a appris'?
Does it become 'l'eleve n'a ni compris ni appris'?
