I could not understand the phrase "un bon pour les cheveux shampooing" so could not put words in right order.
I don't understand why "déguise" is used in the translation of "Grandma always wanted us to be dressed up for the occasion". The suggested answer given is "Mamie voulait toujours qu'on soit déguisés pour l'occasion". All the references I look at imply "make unrecognizable/camouflage", so I'm wondering why "déguisé" is preferred to something like "habillé" in this context? Is it an idiomatic expression?
Please could please explain to me more on how ''en'' is used to replace plural items
Whilst I absolutely get that 'vouloir que' is followed by the subj., whu isn't the above a suitable answer to the question - how would you say' I want you to be home by 6pm?'
The question in the quiz read: Le DJ est insupportable. Tout le monde ______ pense. Fill in the blank with y en le, etc. So the answer is le. As I understand you use le when it replaces a phrase that starts with que or and infinitive. Where is the indication that I should use le? Thanks.
