Noting Joan's question previously (~1 year ago) and Cécile's response, I have to ask why «dehors» is/was not recognised as an option in place of «à l'extérieur». I know the usual - can't cover every possibility - reason. However, in practice (at least where I am currently in the east of France) «dedans» and «dehors» are far more commonly used to express inside or outside (the house), and à l'intérieur or à l'extérieur are rarely heard. Suggest this very common and applicable alternative should be recognised.
Is "ça" never used instead of "ce" in this context? If not, why not? Is it simply idiomatic?
Merci pour la partager. C'est très douce.
How do I add lesson pages and Kwiz answers to a notebook?
However, "efficient" and "effective" have two very different meanings. Google Translate is equally mixing things up, but the French word "efficient" does seem to exist.
Is French less specific in these two words, or is it a misunderstanding of the difference at / error by KwizIQ?
Hi there Could you use the verb " jouir" to mean enjoy in this sentance as well ? "Nous avons joui de chaque minute"

care of a baby and passé composé?
The answer was” lui est reparti”. I wrote “il est reparti” after lui, thinking lui was only there for emphasis.
I’ve never seen lui used as the subject pronoun. Am I missing something?
does participe passé agree with direct object when "on" is the subject of the passive sentence.
for example on l'a regardée (she was watched)(la is feminin article)
ı wish your helps thanks
I am searching for the use of s'intéresser à ...versus interesser quelqu'un. Could you please provide some examples and explain how these two forms should be applied. Thanks heaps.
1. can I say 'je les ai sentiées.'?
2. and when and how can I know how and when to use 'Lui' 'leur' 'leurs' etc? Is there a lesson about how to use them and their meanings?
