so I used the p.c.
je l'ai rencontré is correct so I don't understand.
"mais leur magie demeure avec le spectateur"
--> why cant the verb "rester" be used?
Why can't I say "Nous faisons du progrès." Do I have to say "des progrès"?
How do you say "from the ..."? My guess would be "DE LA ...". However, this can only mean some. What do I do?
"Cette maison est bien."
Am I correct in thinking that, in this case, "bien" is describing the house and is therefore an adjective?
If this is true, then "bien" can be an adjective as well as an adverb.
Please could you tell how to know when to use "bien" or "bon" as an adjective.
In other words, why did the question not read "Cette maison est bonne" ?
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 please expand a bit on the part that says “formally, it should be before, but in practice, it often ends up after”?
If, for example, we were to write it after in an exam script, would this be marked down and regarded as an inaccuracy?
Thanks in advance!
In the first examples, you have
Jacques a manqué son train.
and then,
Vite ! On va manquer le début du concert !
Why is manquer conjugated in the first example, but not the second. The sentence structure seems identical, except instead of have, it is go.?
Thanks.
I see that Jacques a manqué... is the passé composé, but I can't delete my question now.
