Is there a lesson about the verbes d'état on kwiziq?
It was stated in the questions that a lesson about it was added to to-do-list but I couldn't find one.
Thanks a lot.
According to Le Robert and Larousse (Word Reference too) the French noun for the English 'oval' is «ovale» (masculine). The lesson is currently miscorrecting this to 'oval'. Also, I understand that not all acceptable answers can be included but «lèvres minces» is the first option given by Le Robert, and the phrase my French wife would have used on first thought ahead of «lèvres fines» - is it difficult to add this as an acceptable option at the very least?
Is it safe to say that with "an(s)" all of the numbers 1-10 are elisions except for quatre, cinq and neuf?
Shouldn’t it be
On est parti tôt??
how to pronounce a word in french?
In a recent writing exercise I was asked to translate, “I took the little creature in my arms and I took him back to his home.” You translated “took back” with ramener. Ramener stems from mener meaning to lead. As the dog was being carried surely the correct translation in this case is rapporter.
Whilst I absolutely get that 'vouloir que' is followed by the subj., whu isn't the above a suitable answer to the question - how would you say' I want you to be home by 6pm?'
Edith Piaf lived from 1915-1963 (48 years) but unfortunately died before her 48th birthday. This article says she died at 49 but shouldn't it say 47?
Regarding 'Ils ________ pendant les vacances." you give the answer as 'auront grandi'. Reverso gives both an avoir and an etre form forr the future anterior of grandir. I assumed as this was intransiitive it would be the etre form?
