Hi, in the last paragraph the text reads “l’incompétence du capitaine”, but I’m actually hearing “l’incompétence du commandant”.
Hi,
In a newspaper and a book I saw these phrases: non dépisté and non loin. Where I think non is not? Not tested, not far.
Is there a difference between this and pas? Eg in pas maintenant, pas mal, pas encore.
Thank you so much!
In the sentence: "On ne doit pas parler la bouche pleine." what french word translates to the word with in english?
HI,
I was wondering would these two sentences be correct?
1) nous aimons Faire de la randonnée au canada
2) nous randonnons au canada
It's not homework just understanding the lesson on here better for practice.
Thanks
Nicole
Would it possible to prompt the users that they haven't answered all the questions.
I can't speak for the other English speakers around the world, but as a native-born & bred Yank I can tell you that the word "whom" is almost nonexistent in American English. About the only places you will see or hear this in the States is in literature, academia, formal correspondence or maybe in the entertainment or news media. The reality is that Americans overwhelmingly use "who" in all of these cases to the extent that it is the accepted norm (even though it may drive the English professors crazy).
For a translation for "I think she's right," why is "Je la trouve raison" not correct?
et j'espère vraiment qu'il SOIT heureux !
Thank you
Shouldn't this read " whether it's a positive or negative sentence" ?
Is it always the case that one uses the present tense after depuis que rather than the imperfect and passé composé as in " Since I was small, I travelled a great deal"?
