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.
If a sentence says "Elle a fait cueillir des fleurs.", then to turn des fleurs into a pronoun object I would normally use "en". Is it correct to say, "Elle en a fait cueillir." She had some picked. Or should it be "Elle les a fait cueillir." I have never seen an example of causative faire with "en", so not sure if it is correct.
Bonjour,
Je voudrais noter un petit erreur dans la leçon: il y a sept continents, pas six. Il y a deux "amériques," l'Amérique du Nord et l'Amérique du Sud. Dans votre liste de "toutes les continents" vous avez seulement "Amerique."
Bonne journée!
P.S. Je suis dans le Niveau A1, alors je suis désolée pour mes erreurs. Les excusez, s'il vous plaît.
Hello,
I'm hoping you can clarifying something.
I had to translate the following sentence to French:
This year I remembered her birthday for the first time
I used:
Je me souvenais s'anniversaire pour la première fois.
I was told this conjugation was incorrect and I had to use "je me suis souvenue".
I don't understand why?
Thanks in advance.
