Hi, could you say a few words about “qui que ce soit”. Is this a special construction of some kind?
In the sentence: "We brushed our hair", should we write "Nous nous sommes brossé les cheveux" or "Nous nous sommes brossés les cheveux", please? Thank you.
Do "Ma soeur est Lady Gaga" and "Ma soeur hait Lady Gaga" sound the same?
The answer to #7 on the calendar is la neige but I answered une boule à neige (a snow globe) because that's what it looks like to me.
I was asked to write "she's going to hurt him" and I answered "Elle va faire mal a lui" (accent on a). This was scored incorrect, with a proper answer of "Elle va lui faire du mal". Given that there was no way for me to know whether whe was going to hurt him physically or emotionally, I believe my answer was correct. If not, why?
I put ...ne sois intending it to be the ne explétif. And it marked it as wrong. So I got the subjunctive bit right at least. Why is it not the ne explétif?
Thanks
Is this type of sentence structure formal? I am having difficulty in knowing which is formal and which is informal. When will a sentence like this be used?
I would greatly appreciate if there was some sort of guide for this. Thanks!
Hi!
I took a C1 quiz out of curiousity just to see what kind of questions it was. Now my quizbot has started recommending C1 lessons for me. Is there any way in which I can make it start recommending things on my level again? C1 is way too hard for me. I used to know french on a B1 level, but my current level is A1 (though I'll probably reach A2 within a week or two when I've refreshed my old knowledge).
Ne t'assieds pas!Ne t'habille pas!
If the rule is that you drop the s in the tu form.. why assieds?... but only in -er verbs!!
Don't see any way of deleting the question.
