Every once in a while someone asks about punctuation. I try to be a stickler on punctuation in English and must admit I don't understand the punctuation used in Kwiziq. For example, why is there a comma in the sentence beginning Sa beauté and not in the sentence beginning with La reine? And, also, shouldn't it be: Il était, une fois dans une contrée lointaine, une ....?
The above sentence was part of a quiz. Does sur not take a modifier? Shouldn't it be sur l'internet?
how can i understand that 'the last letter ' in one word is silence or not?
For the last section, would it also be ok to use "on" instead of "nous": "on peut enfin ouvrir nos cadeaux !"? I thought that was acceptable, but Kwiziq didn't seem to like it.
Hi, in English, "aren't you" can have a bit of an accusatory tone. Is it the same for "n'est-ce pas" in French?
Should this sentence read ‘Quand on ouvre leur porte’?
If not, please explain. Thanks.
lol this story.
J'ai utilise "ce nouveau cahot" au lieu de "ce nouveau chaos". Est-il assez pareil en sens?
The questions asks for possible translations of "Liliane's son, whom I told you about, lives in Angers."?The following option is marked incorrect, but I don't understand why.
Le fils de Liliane, qui je t'ai parlé de, habite à Angers.
I get that I need to distinguish between Liliane and her son, so the best option is to use "duquel", but if "dont" and "à qui" are accepted, why is "qui" not accepted?
