So, I've been listening to Ta Reine by Angele and I was wondering why in the line: Il lui faudra du temps, c'est sur, pour oublier tous ses prejuges Il and lui are right next to each other. Is it a thing where there's a direct pronoun before the verb? Or if it's something with grammar?
Thank you!
Your example: Elle aime sa nouvelle veste.
I understood from A1 lesson that with clothes (f) we use "la". I noted:
Tu as les mains dans les poches = You have your hands in your pockets
Very interesting article, but just to let you know, there’s no audio even though it’s in the listening section.
comme il mâchait la bouche ouverte
I'm wondering why the 2 different verb tenses here. One act (of seeing) is related to the other act (of chewing) but 2 different tenses were used.
The question was how would you write 78,005 in English. It didn’t say how do you write this decimal number. I wondered if it was but chose to go with thousands and not a decimal number because it was not specified.
In this example of passive voice for se faire gronder why does faite end in e? I thought fait was invariable when a past participle following a feminine/ plural direct object with avoir or following être as in this case.
For: La police est arrivée trop tard.
In english, police and policemen are (la même chose) the same thing, plural nouns, yes? So why then is 'The police arrived too late.' a correct answer and 'The policemen arrived too late.' is not?
I thought "un tir au but" means a shot on goal, during regular play. Isn't a penalty kick supposed to be "un coup de pied de réparation"?
