One of the examples given here is "Mon stylo s'est cassé alors j'en ai acheté un autre".
It seems to me that "Mon stylo s'est cassé alors j'ai acheté un autre" would work just as well, because "un autre" implies "un stylo". So would the second version (i.e. without "en") be: a) OK; b) clumsy; or c) just plain wrong?
Thanks

Greetings! The translation of "des aromes de fumier" above says "smoky aromas," but I'm seeing in the dictionary that the meaning of "fumier" is "manure." Is the translation above mistaken?
Salut! In the second last sentence, tarte is feminine, so why is it “LE goûter” and not LA goûter? I’m assuming the meaning of the sentence is “she invites some friends to taste it” or does it mean “the tasting”?
Listening to the pronunciation of verbs like appeler in the first and second person plural, I don’t here any separate syllable in the verb where the single “l” is. , as in vous appelez, or nous appelons. It’s as if the “e” is simply omitted and the word is pronounced like “ applez” and “applons”. This is much more obvious with the female voice than the male. Could you clarify the pronunciation please?
cud u tell that is it "comment est-il le roman?" or is it "comment le roman est-il?"
Bonjour,
J’espère que vous allez bien !
I am desperate to find out a fact!
Please help!
According to your site, penser may require the subjunctive, depending on whether it is used affirmatively, negatively, or interrogatively.
So, I use the subjunctive for an interrogative sentence.
However, when I did a petit quiz on the subjonctive, my answer was wrong.
“Tu penses qu’il soit capable de réussir ?”
The correct answer is “est”!
But why? Because this question is informal, not “Penses-tu qu’il…”?
I appreciate your information.
Merci d’avance.
"mais leur magie demeure avec le spectateur"
--> why cant the verb "rester" be used?
