In the sentence : Tu parles à ta soeur. Tu lui parles. - why do we use ‘tu LUI parles’? Should not we agree the pronom with ‘la sœur ‘ (féminin) and say ‘ Tu elle parles’?
This is a new expression for me for "giving a gift to someone". I know the expression, "faire quelque chose a quelqu'un" can be used in other ways such as "faire un calin a".
Are there many other similar expressions and is there a lesson on this subject?
Thank you for your help, as always.
1) On se voit vendredi soir = we meet every Friday night? or one specific night
2)On se voit le vendredi soir = we meet every Friday night?
3) On se voit au soir = On se voit le soir?
Thank you
Hi, this question is in reference to your lesson on when verbs with the auxiliary of avoir have to agree :
Special cases when the past participle agrees (in number & gender) when used with 'avoir' in the compound past in French (Le Passé Composé)
I'm wondering about the second verb in this sentence: "Ils ont essayé d'échapper aux Nazis et entassé/entassés dans la rue." Even though the COD is in front of the 2nd verb (entasser), it is the COD for the first verb, essayer. Thus, the second verb, entasser would not be plural?
Who's there? Who is answering these questions? To whom am I addressing this note?
I would truly like those questions answered. I would also like to know why, when reviewing my incorrect responses on a quiz and tapping "discuss this" button, I'm directed back to the lesson that just taught me the incorrect answer. I want a reasonable discussion regarding my answer and why it was incorrect. Because, as far as I am concerned, the answer is correct according to the sentences in the lesson. Directing me back to those sentences just proves to me and my novice, uneducated mind that I am correct. -SLS

How would you translate an exchange like this into French:
"Would you like to go for a walk?"
"Yes, after you make me breakfast."

In the phrase "J'aime beaucoup ce nouveau bijou" why doesn't beaucoup need a "de"?
