Is there a difference between "c'est" and "c'était" ? It seems like people use them interchangeably.
I knew it must be Je, but it sounded like Tu.
This is a really comprehensive lesson. Cécile even provided a list of words beginning with "h" in the comments above but included only nouns and verbs. It would be great if you added a list of adjectives beginning with "h" so we can see which ones follow which rules for "tout" all in one place.
If you want to say you walked here, as opposed to walked there would you say je suis venu à pied?
The lesson implies that "vieux" and "ancien" follow the same usage rules as "neuf" and "nouveau", i.e. objective and subjective, respectively. But according to the lesson on Movable Adjectives, in the case of "ancien" at least, it is the placement of the adjective before or after the noun that determines whether it is translated subjectively or objectively.
Which lesson is correct?
Bonjour,
Comment ça se fait que.... and Comment se fait-il que....
Are the above not interchangeable? I keep getting marked wrong when I use the second one.
Merci, Julia
Can you tell me why it is coffee honey versus just honey?
Questions on ‘partir, sortir, quitter’ which comprise one, some or all answers are so inconsistent, I find it very irritating. Sometimes when I choose all three (excluding ‘laisser’ of course), only ‘partir’ is the answer deemed acceptable. sometimes, when I select ‘partir’ only, all three are given as correct. More context please.
