Is récupérer interchangeable with acheter? Can I use récupérer for clothes shopping?
e.g. Je vais récupérer une robe
why is 'écossais[e]" the only nationality not capitalized?
I am working on an iPad.. that is a horrible phrase to type and 75% of it unnecessary!
Does anyone agree?
One of the quiz questions: Nous ________ une fois par mois. We have money wired once a month. HINT: virer de l'argent = to wire money
The answer is listed as "Nous faisons virer de l'argent une fois par mois." Could it also be "Nous faisions virer de l'argent une fois par mois," since it's a repetitive action?
I'm new to using Kwiziq and I'm just figuring out how to use it on a day to day basis. When I had 10 recommended lessons, I read through all of them carefully and then did a test. What surprises me is that the bot keeps so many lessons. Are we expected to read them again? Or do most users just read the lessons they haven't already read, and then take another test?
By virtue of "petits," "mollusques" is masculine plural. But, "délicieux" seems to agree with "chair." "Chair" seems to be part of an adjectival phrase. So, this means "delicious tide" rather than "delicious mollusk." I remember hearing that "délicieux" does not mean the same thing in English. There was a news report when President Macron used it on an international trip and all the English speakers got the wrong idea. Any comments?
In Part 3 : La seule chose qu'elle nous a laissé faire, ce sont les carreaux, here "les carreaux" has been translated as "the windows" and I think that may be an error. Or are they a particular type of window that she had in her room that she didn't know how to clean?
In the quiz I got 'Elle trouve ________ beau'. I answered: que t'es. However, this was counted wrong and instead it should be que tu es. Would my contraction be incorrect?
