However, the lesson 'Using le with days of the week + weekend' states that "You will NOT use le when talking about weekdays in a specific context (on Monday):

Could you please explain why the use of LE in this context is a correct answer. Thank you

Male noun but pertains to a female of the noun

Hi,

"chat" is a masculine noun in French, but can I use it to refer to my female cat?

When I'm talking about her, e.g. my cat is going to eat her breakast, do I still say

"Mon chat vas manger son petit-dejeuner?"

What is the best way of talking about my female cat in this context?

QUESTION #1 on the short quiz.

I love the question and its hint "How would you say ''I haven't been in France for long.'' ?(literally: I haven't long arrived to France.)

The answer: Je ne suis pas arrivé en France depuis longtemps.

Je ne me sens pas intelligent et j'ai l'air stupide comme ça depuis longtemps !!! I think i get it! I know I got it! OOOPS me no get it!!

The hint imposes a thought process on the reader which would not be there otherwise. Clever... it reinforces the understanding of the verb 'arriver' as a sort of process.... and shakes up the marbles in the old nuggin.

However!!! My question. I arrived in France 'yesterday' and I am telling someone today that "I haven't been in France for long". I am thinking it calls for the Present indicative and depuis. Since i was in France as of yesterday(the past) and am still here today (the present).

Je ne suis pas en France depuis longtemps!!!

Without the hint and its imposition of the verb 'arriver' then doesn't this question change dramatically.

Help!!!!!!!

nous pouvons si nous le voulons

Bonjour,

Just want to ask why there is "le" in this sentence. It translates to english as we can if we want to, so why the le?

Merci :)
