French language Q&A Forum

Why isn't the first sentence "Qu'est-ce que vous pensez de nouvelles technologies ?" "New technologies" is a general statement, as speakers are not talking about specific tech, and the responder even answers by generally referencing "ces nouveaux appareils."

Or otherwise 

je ne veux pas du tout lait ? 

does the 'du tout' cancel out the de ?? (normal sentence: je ne veux pas de lait)

also regarding verbs that need prepositions before the infinitive...

je ne te permets pas du tout de venir ici 

or 

je ne te demande pas du tout de me voir 

Hi,

I am a bit confused of what you would change this to. Would you change à sa tanté to lui or leur?

Thanks

Whatever I choose its wrong so there's some weird little French nuance going on … in English you could say ' You are friends' or 'They are friends' 

For swimming with fish, should it be "nager avec les poissons", or "nager avec du poissons"? I cheated during the test (oops) and "avec du poission" was the answer google provided me. The system approves it but in the final article it says "avec les poissons".... what is the difference? 

Also, can it be "J'ai des cheveux longs et ondulés" instead of "les"? 

I'm a little confused about what it means in the article when it says that "le jour suivant" or "le jour précédent" have to be used "on their own". Does that mean that they can't be directly followed by a noun or a verb, or just that you can't specify time of day by adding "au matin"? The section following where it says they have to be used on their own mentions that you can combine them with nouns (ex: "le jour suivant son arrestation"), so I'm not entirely clear on the "only on their own" part. Hopefully I'm not just missing something obvious. Thanks in advance for your help!

In the dictation the phase "auriez-vous" is not pronounced very well, if not at all, it sounds like " I'll give you"

I have a question. In a writing execrise, it requires translate the sentence: My new school bag is blue and yellow. I understand it's a new brand school bag that hasn't be used before, so I wrote: Mon cartable neuf est bleu et jaune. But it marks wrong and the correct one is: Mon nouveau cartable est ...

Why is that and is my sentence correct?
