Pardon for asking, but it states 'Elizabeth deux vient en France' in one of the Minikwizes for this lesson. I'm assuming she WENT to France, not came from [ in ? ] France. It makes no sense to me, but, to be honest, I had to do the country preposition lessons so many times it wasn't even funny. Perhaps I am being stupid, or perhaps I am just railing against my own inadequacies, but, To you I pose this question good sir or madame.
I enjoyed your quiz on using à vs de, but I've had no success in locating a lesson where you illustrated the differences. Can you share?
It would be very helpful to have a translation of these dictation exercises
Expressing cause with "Pour (+être) allé" = For going/having gone in French
I am unsure why «pour avoir (past participle)» is sub-headed 'simple expression' and «pour être (past participle)» is sub-headed "complex expression". Is it because the latter lesson also includes reflexives, or am I missing some other complexity with «être»? The lessons and phrases seem otherwise essentially identical, using avoir or être as required by the verb in infinitif passé form.
dans seem to fit with the lesson. I thought that 'pendant' would have been the correct answer. I cannot work out why it isn't. Help please!
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!
