Hi can someone tell me the different meanings between these two sentences
elle n'a embrassé qu'Alexandre
elle n'a qu'embrassé Alexandre
and in an example given at the top of the page why the meaning was not explained within brackets like the other examples above and below it.
Nous n'avons regardé qu'un film.Should it of said Nous n'avons regardé qu'un film (and watched nothing else)
When I buy cat food for my (many) cats, many of the products are translated into French. What I have seen written by manufacturers almost exclusively for dry cat food is “nourriture sèche pour chats.” That said, what I think you’re trying to teach us is the more colloquial term, as the English might say “crunchies” and we Americans might say “kibble;” hence, “les croquettes.” Am I correct in that neither is wrong? (FYI, I am checking with two friends of mine who live in France who are cat breeders. I am curious to see what they say.)
Hey, in this question I understand why the answer is "que," but why is "achetées" matching "les décorations" if it's preceded by "avoir" instead of "être"?
This exercise uses que in two places I don't understand. First, ¨Alors que je traversais un coin...¨ Second ¨J'ai attendu que la depanneuse arrive.¨ I think "alors que" means while. It seems the second usage should be "jusqu'á." I have never seen que used that way.
I've keyed the below sentence into google.
As the subject is the 'same person' in both parts of the sentence, is the translation wrong?
According to the lesson the subjunctive occurs when something happens so that someone else does something.
"I do it so that I look beautiful" ... "Je le fais pour que je sois belle."
