I'm using another website along side this and there it says ''Qu'est-ce que c'est'' means ''What is that'' where as here you say it means ''What is it'' I'm really confused.
Why is the pouvoir necessary in this sentence? I would translate it as : I am going to bring out my spring clothes. What does the "pouvoir" add to the sentence that I am missing? Thank you!
Could someone comment on the function of “au” in “très au sérieux”? It is optional? In which other circumstances might we see a similar thing?
Salut. "Dont" c'est un pronom relatif qui me confond toujours -- quelquefois je me sens que je le comprends un peu mieux.
"Un traitement antirétroviral prophylactique est proposé à celles dont la test est positif"
Pourquoi dont? avec quoi s'accord il? peut-on dire ".... a celles pour qui la test est positif"?
This sentence in the english translation doesn't sound right to me. The inclusion of the words "and that" aren't needed.
Though you might have never heard her name before, Olympe de Gouges played an essential part in the women's right struggle, and that long before the term "feminist" made an appearance.So if venir de + infinitive means to have just done something, why has ‘juste’ been introduced in the sentence “Je viens juste d’emménager”. It sounds a bit like “i’ve just just moved”.
On the quiz, I was given Je ________ un jouet! and put voudrais in the blank. It was marked incorrect and veux given as the correct answer. I though you could use either. Why was voudrais wrong?
When to use a, au and chez?
Still wondering how to say "Who is bothering you?"
Is récupérer interchangeable with acheter? Can I use récupérer for clothes shopping?
e.g. Je vais récupérer une robe
