Hello everyone,
I was wondering if this sentence must always be written in this Order:
François, dont j'ai rencontré la femme le mois dernier.
The lesson says that there are cases in which we find the possession separated by a verb, but there is no explanation about whether that is a rule that must always followed or is another way of expressing things.
Is it correct to write it like this?
François, dont la femme j'ai rencontré le mois dernier.
Thanks!
Who's there? Who is answering these questions? To whom am I addressing this note?
I would truly like those questions answered. I would also like to know why, when reviewing my incorrect responses on a quiz and tapping "discuss this" button, I'm directed back to the lesson that just taught me the incorrect answer. I want a reasonable discussion regarding my answer and why it was incorrect. Because, as far as I am concerned, the answer is correct according to the sentences in the lesson. Directing me back to those sentences just proves to me and my novice, uneducated mind that I am correct. -SLS
two rows of white teeth.
I wrote
"deux rangées des dents blanche"
but the answer is
"deux rangées de dents blanche"
Why is "de dents" instead of "des dents"?
How can I add an accent mark to "a" when answering what city I am from?
merci
«Il pense avoir fini ce rapport d'ici jeudi.
He thinks he'll have finished this report by Thursday».
«ATTENTION
When using verbs of opinions such as penser (to think) and croire (to believe) to say 'I believe that / I think that' in French, you always need to put que ('that') after them, whereas in English you can sometimes omit it.»The first quote is an example from this lesson, the second from the lesson on penser que, croire que. Although the English translation in the lesson doesn't include 'that', it is implied and seems to meet the previously noted rule that 'pense que' should always be used in French. I also don't understand why it would not be 'pense qu'il avoir fini'? What am I missing? Thanks
