The lesson notes an exception for naître (correctly) and for apparaître. It does not clearly state the exception for apparaître - although I note in discussion it has been mentioned it is because it also conjugates with être in passé composé. As I understand it, and checking other verb conjugation sites, this is correct but not what is shown on the verb conjugation site of Lawless French https://www.lawlessfrench.com/verb-conjugations/apparaitre/
So you can only use these expressions (attaching 'aine') with the quantities shown above? How would I say '35 or so apples' for example?
I've been marked wrong for using - Il est dix-neuf heures et demie. - for 7.30 PM
But it's shown as acceptable in the lesson above.
Why?
Can someone give me examples of se régaler in sentences please? and deguster?
I am confused by the repeat of vous in this question and also in "Vous vous appelez M.Durand." Is this standard?
Wow! She talks fast and mumbles. Reminds me of my teenagers. I guess all around the world people are not really interested in being clearly understood. Perfect practice for when I encounter strangers talking to me while looking at their shoes or smart phone.
Lol
Keep it
What's a good definition for "se faire goûter"?
Why utilize inversion in the final sentence, "ne serait-ce que pour les garder en vie"?
Are there verbs that don't follow the structured outline noted here - 'stem' from future simple conjugation, 'endings' from past imperfect conjugation? I think that I have not yet (early days) come across a verb that does not conjugate in the conditional in accordance with these simple 'rules' and having this clarified could/should/would make it much easier to remember. Even for irregular verbs it seems to me that if you know the imparfait and the future simple (both of which are also pretty consistent with 'endings' but not the stems) you have all you need to know the conditional.
