To say "I liked spending time with you" which is the correct answer, or can they both be correct?
a) J'ai aimé...
b) J'ai bien aimé...
Why is it 'conquérir le reste de la Gaule' but then just 'les peuples de Gaule'. I think I've seen the same thing with France in sentences - sometimes 'la France', sometimes just 'France'.
Hi,
Sorry I have another question. When working on knowing the difference between the verbs in the indicative or Subjonctif what is the easiest way?
I thought this sentence was Subjonctif but it is indicatif.
Il dit que leur page d'accueil (être) ____ attrayante. They used est not soit
Thanks

Pouquoi "de" il essaie de parler français
The question read, How do you say, “We don’t know you at all.” Before I clicked on the drop-down arrow, I was expecting to see: Nous ne vous connaissons pas du tout. I was surprised to see that the choices only included the familiar form: Nous ne te connaissons pas du tout. Wouldn’t the fact that the familiar form was used imply that we do know you? Is it that I was applying a literal meaning to a figurative question?
Je ne comprends pas le temps que ca lui prend de se preparer ! Is an example given to illustrate when l'indicatif is used and not le subjonctif. That I understand but I find the the sentence interesting and would like to ask : 1. Could que ca lui be replaced by qu'elle prend ? and 2. Could que ca be replaced by celui que ?
I should know this by now but don't. Please explain why c'est is used and not 'Il est' I would have thought (wrongly) that 'il est' is referring to a specific person and therefore be the correct choice? Thank you
Je pense que c'est le meilleur candidat. Je le pense sincèrement.
1. Instead of “une liste de ce que je voudrais faire là-bas”, could we say “une liste de ce que je voudrais y faire” (a list of what I would like to do over THERE) ?
2. Instead of “elles m’emmèneront dans des restos branchés”, could we say “elles m’emmèneront à des restos branchés” (they will take me TO trendy restaurants) ?
Appreciate any answers regarding whether my alternatives are possible or not. Thanks.
