When we use "nous", is the object always referred to in the singular, such as "notre horloge"?
Can a translation be found of this afterwards?
For a translation for "I think she's right," why is "Je la trouve raison" not correct?
My native French friend (Paris & Bordeaux based) has never heard of “ Être chocolat”. Is this a local regional expression?
I used the first person plural form of the verb for two reasons. Because the explanatory sentence used "we", not "one" or "people", and because although we may well know that everyone in our group is dying to meet her, we certainly cannot know that about the general public.
Why was this wrong?
Can I use this phrase in situations like, "That's it! I've had enough!" Or would ça suffit be more appropriate here?
Sometimes the answers were written as numbers (4h45) and at other times in words (cinq heures moins le quart). The full text uses all words. Are words really more common for stating times?
In the sentence: "Que tu l'admettes ou non, ce ne sont pas tes amis," why is "ce ne sont pas" used for "they're not" instead of "ils ne sont pas"? Thank you.
Why isn't it "qu'est-ce qui sent comme le chocolat" if the answer is "what smells like chocolate"? It looks like "what does chocolate smell like."
