French language Q&A Forum

One past tense example said "Ma tante est passée par la boulangerie en venant ici", while another said "Nous avons passé une semaine à Madrid l'été dernier." Why is the non reflexive passer being conjugated with etre?

I think that there has been a mis-type - the subtitle for this vocabulary list should be “... less common...” not “...less commons...”

In the third sentence, we are given the hint to use "on", but then marked wrong when we used it instead of "nous."

bien or bon?

I could understand, «c'est bon» «c'est bien» and «être bien + adv.» such as le contraire est bien documenté

But «être bien (alone)»?

Je ne comprends pas le verbe “patiner” dans ce cadre, où il veut dire “Come to a standstill.” Je cherche des définitions, mais je suis pas arrivé à le reconciler le traduction.

Merci beaucoup
