1.would we have a liason between" fait une" ,like when we say "c'est une" ?
2. how do we determine whether to use "aux " or "des" to imply made of something?
Again, the use of little words like "bien" and "tout" are common in French and not direct translations from English. A unit explaining the uses of these two simple words would be really helpful.
"Il a bien compris." "Il a tout compris." "J'en ai bien envie." "Elle est tout heureuse." "Il y a bien de choses." "Il est a des kilometres de toute trace de civilisation."
Not trying to be a pest, but I would really like to master these simple little words and phrases to feel closer to fluent. Thanks.
the lesson says: To express after + -ing / after having + past participle in French, you use the same following structure:
après + Infinitif passé (= infinitive of auxiliary (être or avoir) + past participleATTENTION:
Use the same auxiliary as in compound tenses like Le Passé Composé.
But all the examples are using avoir. Could you expand a little about using être in this situation? Thanks!
Does Lawless French plan on incorporating audio questions to their Kwizis? (For example: "type what you hear".) I really enjoy doing the listening practices and know they're beneficial, however, since you cannot earn points doing them, it can be hard sometimes to find enough motivation to do them over the arguably easier kwizis.
Also, if this addition was to be made, it could be optional. (e.g. "Would you like to include audio questions in this kwizi?" or something like that.)
Just an idea :)
The question in the test quiz "Cette année, Michaël ________ perdre du poids" is marked wrong if you enter "doit", it wants "a besoin de". Whilst this is correct in the context of this lesson, as far as I can see looking at the lesson comparing the use of Devoir and Avoir besoin de, the use of "doit" would also be reasonable.
2 allers-retours. But grand-mère, not grande-mère.
In the phrase "J'aime beaucoup ce nouveau bijou" why doesn't beaucoup need a "de"?
Why is
grandes quilles de bois acceptable but not grande boule de bois?
In the second example ‘grande’ is corrected to ‘grosse’.
Both are describing ‘big’ as in:
-eight big wooden skittles
-a big wooden ball
