For the line « Il n'aime pas le vert » one of the reference lessons is to the use of colours as adjectives with changes in gender/number. However, in this sentence « vert » is a noun, and a more relevant reference would be to the use of (definite) articles with ne ... pas as linked here:
Du/de la/de l'/des all become de/d' in negative sentences (French Partitive Articles)
I know the masculine form is more dominant than the feminine form. How come the correct answer in this quiz is ‘zombie’ not ‘zombi’?
How are the currency signs pronounced? The lesson does not spell out these words and it is very difficult for beginners to make out the words by listening to the recordings. It would be very help if the lesson spell out the currency signs as to how they are pronounced even though these words are not required in this lesson.
Earlier in the sentence, I understand why it's "de délicates pâquerettes blanches" instead of "des" (because the adj precedes the noun and that causes the plural partitive/indefinite article to change from des to de) but I don't understand why that's been done to the tulips too.
I understand the construction and use of "Il veut que j'aille acheter du lait.", but I wonder if "Il me veut acheter du lait" is any less correct? Thanks!
What is the difference between "soi" and "soi-même"? Can't they be interchangeable?
Example: "On peut toujours trouver plus fort que soi/soi-même."
Je ne comprends pas la raison que vous avez écrit "C'est très ennuyeux". Est-ce que "C'est très ennuyant" est aussi correcte?
My answer "qu'est-ce qu'elle va acheter?" was marked wrong. Why?
