Why was my answer: " Je suis en retard cinq minutes"
marked wrong and the only correct answer was "J'ai cinq minutes de retard".
I thought that there were two ways to say "I was 5 minutes late"
Je suis désolé but I cannot make a complete sense out of the following sentence: que vous humecterez de vos lèvres avant de lui essuyer les joues. You make le mouchoir wet with your lips before wiping your cheeks? So, what’s she doing ?
can we say that
Est-ce que vous connaissez Pierre? Oui, il est bon etudiant
normally nouns need "articles". but "il" can use without an article for giving an opinion about something mentioned.As you can see There is a noun in the sentence.I am curious about whether it is correct or not?
Hi - Could someone explain to me why the line "he told me that he needed a new raincoat" is translated into French without the adjective "new"? (..il m'a dit qu'il avait besoin d'un imperméable). Thanks.
Hello
I was wondering if there was a lesson on the verb devoir because I'm not seeing it.
Thanks

Why is it "C'est là que j'ai appris" and not "C'est là où j'ai appris"?
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?
In lesson 2 of 10 in A1, on the quiz I was marked as incorrect when I included "He was not..." as a translation for "On..." They said that "we" and "you" were acceptable translations, but "he" was not. I do not understand why not. I watched the video & read the lesson, but it did not answer my question.
