Question..What does ''Mon amie non plus.'' mean ?.. answer My friend neither.
“My friend too.“ Is given as a mistake.
.. maybe a bit too correct.. whilst my friend neither is grammatically correct, how many of us would actually say that? I think most would more often say “my friend too”.. meaning” my friend agrees with me!
I see that les Lettres and just Lettres (without the 'les') are both accepted as correct answers but then further on the 'les' cannot be left off when used with 'Lettres Classiques'. Is there a rule governing this usage ?

Hi , the point I was trying to make in my question immediately below was that the lesson states that the subjunctive applies after 'vouloir que' where a desire for "someone else" to do something is involved. In the sentence that I quote it is 'something else' that is involved i. e. son film, and not "someone else".
Could you please clarify.
Thank you

Hi. Elsa eats and I buy.. Shouldn't you rather use the progressive form in the translations, Elsa is eating and I am buying, as the simple present denotes habitual or repeated actions, as if Elsa were eating them every day and I buying new sheets daily ?

How does one express "this soup (or whatever) needs pepper! That is to say, this soup must have pepper (in order for it to taste ok)? Is 'il faut' acceptable or is 'avoir besoin de' the way to express?
La soupe, il faut du poivre!
