How can I add an accent mark to "a" when answering what city I am from?
merci
When I get an exercise starting with "Quand j'étais petit" I always think of the song by the same name by Ultra Vomit, a French comedy-metal band. I didn't even know comedy-metal was a genre before I heard them!
Please can someone explain the use of ‘envoûter de par?’ I would have expected ‘envoûter de...’ or ‘envoûter par...’
Also, in the same paragraph, can ‘que l’on rencontre’ equally be ‘qu’on rencontre?’
Thanking you in advance!
In "j'irai au Carnaval de Nice", why is the word "carnaval" capitalised.?
Their own website does not use a capital for "carnaval" in “le carnival de Nice”.
See this page where there are 2 instances:
http://www.nicecarnaval.com/le-carnaval
although, strangely, in other parts of the page, in different contexts, the word is capitalized.
La fille à laquelle je pense est belle
¿Why is à used here instead of de ?
Why do we use "c'est aussi" to say "it was"? Also why "c'est le premier octobre" to say "it was the first of October"?
Which is better to use:
Vous avez un chat?
OR
Est-ce que vous avez un chat?
Why prefer one over the other?
