French language Q&A Forum

Dear team  

I was wondering if I could use "en plaçant or mettant" instead of "en posant" .  

Perhaps "en posant" is used in a physical sense ?

Thank you again for all your help !

How do I add accent marks?

Salut! Why is it “je préfère la pistache” instead of “de la pistache”. Do we not use du, de la, etc before food in this case? 

I agree with the Kwiziq team members and some others that the words all sound clear, with my connection anyway. After I have completed the exercise and re-listened to the whole passage it magically becomes very clear. My only query is the word "honnêteté" where, despite numerous listens, I can't hear all the syllables, and I was wondering whether it is usually pronounced as spelled "honnêteté", or in common usage is simply pronounced "honnêté"

In doing a translation exercise something was modified in English as being "the second most" + adj + noun (ex. the fifth richest county in the state). Could you add an example like to this lesson? Because how it's written in French turned out not to be a direct translation to English and it is not clear to me how to address a phrase like this from this lesson. 

I'm a little confused as to why 'impressionnés' is in the plural. Is this because it is a passive voice?

Merci, Steve
