I answered the "vampires in the morning question" (I have attempted to include the french text several times, but the website keeps reducing to a ">"; i guess it doesn't play nice with ">") and would like to better understand why. Am I correct in that the parts of speech for the "nous" are as follows: 1st stress pronoun, 2nd subject pronoun, 3rd reflexive pronoun? I was, prior to the quiz, under the impression that the first "nous" actually serves as a subject pronoun (auxiliary to the les vampires) and thus I omitted the 2nd "nous" in my answer. To help solidify my understanding, would the following be correct: > or does this construction only form with plural subjects? Merci d'avance!
I am just wondering why ´pressé is not in the infinitive after ´tu ne semblais pas pressé’?
Merci
In the lesson the -i- in Yorkshire is not pronounced as an "ee'' sound (like the ee in ‘fee’ for example) as I would expect, could you please clarify. Thank you.
The French don't drink "pintes" because they don't use the imperial system. They drink "chopes". Une chope de bière.
In the quiz, I translated "He took my hand" as "Il a pris la main", but was marked wrong. The correct answer is "Il a pris ma main" but I thought we can write la main for my hand
To get dressed is “s’habiller”
How would you say “to get dressed IN” (for example I get dressed in my uniform)
Thanks!
Why is “j’ai toujours eu une passion pour les etoiles” in the passé compose and not in the Imparfait? Does not “toujours” indicate it is an on-going situation and therefore it would be in the imparfait? I still have so much trouble with using these tenses correctly.
Thanks.
Is "de la" in this sentence partitif?
Can we also translate it to "c'est la même couleur"?
