I chose the c-with-cedille for the beginning of the fourth sentence, but I wasn't able to figure out how to make it capitalized (thus I got it wrong because it wasn't capitalized). How can one do that ?
When I have done well on a quiz, there is often a comment regarding what I have "won". "Someone won something!" or, " Look at all you've won!" I was just wondering what am I winning or what have I won, and where is it being kept?
In the full passage answer text, 'je vais prendre un coca' is given. In the test, it suggests one uses Le Futur Proche, as here, but then marked it as not the best answer and provided the best answer in the Future Tense ie 'Je prendrais'. Much confusion!
Can someone explain why sometimes you make a "direct object" do something and other times an "indirect object"? Examples:
Je le fais asseoir à côté de moi (direct object) - I make him sit next to me
Je lui fais sortir la poubelle (indirect) - I make him take out the garbage
Elle lui fait cueillir les fleurs (indirect) - She makes him pick the flowers
There has to be a unifying rule that explains this distinction. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
Bonjour,
Hi, I'm sorry if this post is in the wrong place I wasn't sure were to direct it to. But I was wondering if you have a sentence that has You and I in it or a person's name then either I or me(moi) how would that be categorized by?
Would it be direct object pronouns?
Thanks
Nicole
I thought so too, only to see the correction suggesting that i should have written that he "goes to go to bed"!
Bonjour Madame Aurélie !
Thanks for designing this worksheet which was a brain -teaser indeed !
A question which I propose to ask you is regarding this sentence -
Tout ça pour en arriver là !
The English translation suggests “All that to get there !” But I want to ask what is the very need to use an adverbial pronoun en when the English can be interrupted without en ? Secondly , you specified in the English “ to get from there to there” . Does this play an important role in deciding the option between “y/en” as I answered “y” ?
Merci d’avance !
Bonne journée !
