We were asked to translate "I always knew." Seems to me this is an ongoing action in the past. A description of the past. I think this should be "Je savais toujours." "J'ai su" is more like "I found out."
Why is « Il » referring to Tom Cruse? Why isn’t it referring to the film that Julie is watching ?
Can "en hiver" also be translated as "during the winter"/"in wintertime" or would I have to say "pendant l'hiver" or something else? The translation "in winter" doesn't seem like common phrasing it seems almost like the beginning of a scientific statement and I'm bound to over-translate it.
I didn't do as well as I had hoped yet for every response, I had portions of the phrase correct. I agree with the comments here that when the phrase is incorrect, you shouldn't respond with 'well done.' Also, it appears you are grading on the way you expect the answer to be; however, there are multiple ways to express the phrase and many of my answers were the alternative. Granted, the spelling was wrong and I missed some words but I understood how to express each phrase. I would profit from knowing what I need to work on vs 'well done.'
I use to play golf with my grandfather
It is somewhat reassuring to find so many others have found this confusing! Hope it is reviewed soon. Needs clarification and simplification, and use of standard symbols to replace unspecified letters. I always do the lesson first and then check the comments - this is one of those that makes me think I should read the comments first. When can a review be expected?
This lesson is too complex and far too much information is posted. Can you split it up into five or six different lessons? I am not learning well with this current set up.
The pronunciation here does not elide the s of pas into ecouter. I would have thought it would be pronounced, PAZ ECOUTER. No?
