Hello, I enjoyed listening to this, but could you direct me to the B1 exercises that test comprehension. I found a lot of them for A2 but I can't find any for B1. Thank you!
Hi Team,
For clarity, I would suggest a sentence change:
Original: With the "above 12 o'clock" times (13h, 14h, ...), you don't use et quart, et demie, moins le quart ...
Suggested: When using the 24-hour clock (13h, 14h, ...), you don't use et quart, et demie, moins le quart ....
brosse should have an s at the end when you say I brushed them
Shouldn't it be 'je suis allée' as the person speaking is female?
I wonder, what's the matter with question 1 in the quiz. I answered it 4 or 5 times and each time the result was the same three out of four! But I didn't mark the answer which says ICECREAMS, so I'm disappointed
Regarding this test question and my wrong answer and correct answer: “How would you say "One has to earn others' respect." in French?
Il faut gagner le respect des autres. (Correct)
Il faut gagner le respect d’autres. (My wrong answer)
I’ve read the lesson numerous times as well as the discussion below and nothing explains why I was marked wrong on this question. Is there something about “il faut” that is like “se server de” in the lesson’s example that would require “DES autres” instead of “d’autre”? The translation is not “of THE others”, just the more general “others”.
What is triggering the use of 'en' in the sentence 'le destin en a décidé autrement' ? Is it the fact that 'décider' implies a clause starting with 'de' - or something else ?
I often can't see a simple 'de...' clause that could be interchanged with the 'en'.
I've heard that both ceux(and all of its forms) and lesquels(and all of its forms) means the one. So, how do you differentiate? For example: Eva aime mes biscuits mais déteste ceux de sa tante.
