Hi, in the line
“Second, express your deepest feelings.”
for which the answer is
“Deuxièmement, exprimez vos plus profonds sentiments.”
Should this be “Deuxième”. Same point for Troisièmement & Quatrièmement.
Agreed. Both choices are corrrect and depend on the context. The same would apply when using ancienne. One could say "mon ancienne voiture" or "ma voiture ancienne", depending on the circumstances. Is it my old car or my prior car?
Bonjour,
I noticed that the adjectives and adverbs agree with le plus/le moins, all used were masculine. Is this so?
Merci :)
One of the correct options used "avant que" without the "ne". I gather this is permissible sometimes?
I understand now that:
In French there is no “like” as in English. Something doesn’t smell like chocolate, it just “smells chocolate”.
So, you would say: Ça sent le chocolat
But how would you say "Who smells chocolate?"
Qui sent le chocolat ?
Whereas Qu'est-ce qui sent le chocolat is the longer way of saying "What smells like chocolate"
Is this correct?
Or would you have to say something like: qui peut sentir le chocolat ?
a) Je dormais quand tu m'as interrompu OR b) J'étais dormir quand tu... In sentence b) is être redundant as the verb dormir can be used?
In this phrase "avec laquelle je servirai un variété de légumes" can the word "qui" also be used in place of "laquelle" since it is referring to a living thing - a turkey.
thank you,
Nancy
I love the programme and intend to subscribe. My aim is to reach B2 by the end of the year and C1/2 next year. Please could you advise me on the best way forward.
Kind regards

I know this lesson is about the plus que parfait but to say "had to", can you also use the passé composé? For example, he had to leave before 5. "Il a dû partir à 5 heures.
