French language Q&A Forum

Bonjour. S'il vous plaît  expliquez pourquoi utilise-t-on le mot grosses tomates au lieu de grandes tomates. Merci. Bonne journée. 

Is there somewhere I can find the number of French topics covered on Kwiziq per CEFR level?

« Les cloches sont passées ce matin pour apporter les œufs de Pâques » but in the other quizz « Il a passé l’hiver dernier à Chamonix ». In my mind it should be avoir in both sentences. 

I have a point to make about the English.  It involves a very common mistake.  When using a gerund it should be modified by an adjective.  From the examples above:  It has been a day without him eating is not correct, it should be; It has been a day without his eating.  He came without your knowing.  I won`t leave without your kissing me goodbye. etc.

Still wondering how to say "Who is bothering you?"

if there is a noun at the begining of the sentence we have two ways to ask a question ;

est-ce que henry a un sac?

henry a-t-il un sac
can we use the "a" at the begining of the question word?
for example A henry un sac or  "ont les femmes des crayons? does it work? 

I wish your helps
Thank you so much

"Une peintre" and "une peinture"

Meaning of the above two words is the same which is "a Painting"......Am I correct....if yes then what's the French for "a painter"?

Is cuillère à thé a fixed phrase meaning a teaspoon for measuring? The lesson says à generally means what something is used for, however, this phrase would then mean "a spoon for tea," not a "teaspoon."

Dans cette phrase: ..."puis nous irons déjeuner dans un bistrot de votre choix", est-ce qu'on peut écriver aussi "puis nous déjeunerons dans..." ?  Ce n'était pas claire qu'on doit utiliser le futur proche dans cette phrase.
