Bonsoir, je ne comprends rien
Mon amie fait ses propres bijoux.
Shouln't it be: Ma amie fait ses propres bijoux ?
I see that it refers to feminine friend, not masculine.
Is "ça" never used instead of "ce" in this context? If not, why not? Is it simply idiomatic?
Why is it that the 'nous' form of the verb "finir" is conjugated as "finissons" but the 'nous' form of the verb "regrossir" is conjugated as"regrossissons"?
If 'Allons-y' is 'Let's go', what is the French for 'Let's go there'?
Bonjour! In French, how do you know in math equations when to use "font" or "égale" for equals?
Correct Answer isI had to complete a worksheet where it marked me wrong for writing "Neuf cent soixante-six moins trois cent quarante-deux font six cent vingt-quatre." It told me the right answer was the exact same sentence, but with "égale" instead of "font."
However, it marks "Deux cents plus trois cents font cinq cents" correctly.
Can someone please explain why and when to use each word?
Bonjour! Could the interviewer have answered “si, vraiment” when James said “n’importe quoi”? Also, I infer that “n’importe quoi” is something you’d say when trying to be humble. What’s a good equivalent in English? I don’t exactly understand the expression. Merci!
Can infinitif passé be used with avant de under some circumstances?
Here's an example sentence from my French class:
Il n'ira pas jouer avec ses amis avant d'avoir fini ses devoirs.
The question was to correctly conjugate the verb finir in the bolded place; I'd written finir (infinitif présent) in the first place.
