What do you mean by éXer verbs - you talk about them and then use "Completer" as an example -but completer doesn't end in éxer.

Anique asked a question 12 months ago on this - I think the point of raising it was that although it can be deduced (or guessed) from the lesson, there is no reference or example in the lesson that covers 'la douzaine' or similar, other than 'etc' at the end of the title. It would be worth adding a line or two to cover this in the topic.

Hi

While studying with a french article online, I found this sentence driving me crazy for 3 days....... I would greatly greatly appreciate for any help...

 Im wondering how "dont" works in the sentence.. Does it mean "including"? Or is it "de + qui/que"??

The word "certains" comes right after the "dont" causes more frustration to me.... Cuz i cannot figure out the reason for that....

Im also wondering why the adverb "impossible" is there without the verb "être"... Does French omit "qui est" like English "which is"?

When do you use une in place of la in french

I've read the comments and know that this lesson is being reviewed. It can't come soon enough. It really is poorly written, and I'm just not going to test on it until it's edited, changed or whatever. Will try to learn the topic via some other means.

Why does the question asking for the conjugation of s'asseoir mark the answer "Nous nous assoyons"  in favour of "Nous nous asseyons" when according to the LESSON on this subject provides both conjugations ?

Instead of "on doit se faire plasir" could one say "on doit se soigner"?

Instead of "dans la rue" could one say "le long de la rue"?

Instead of "nous irons voir la fanfare en famille" could one say "nous irons en famille voir la fanfare" (I can find several instances of "irons en famille voir" in a Google search).?

I took the quiz and got the answer wrong when I put 'Qu' est' instead of 'Quel est' – so I'm slightly confused because I thought that it should be Qu' since est starts with a vowel?

Hello,

When working with negation what is the easiest way to remember when to keep the indefinite article and not the definite article?

Example: can we do like I do not like meat nor fish since you can have some of the meat and some of the fish they would not keep the indefinite article correct?

Thanks
