This helped me with my french assignment in school so much!! Thank you !!!! pogchamp
The exercise gives " c'était la boulangerie de Madame Poitier." I tried "Il était...." because we're discussing a specific building. (The grammar lesson on c'est & il/elle est suggests using "il/elle" for specific things). Is there some wriggle room on this one or was I just plain wrong?
HI,
I was wondering when I took the test why un étonnamment bon film was marked wrong wouldn't étonnamment be describing how good the film is or was?
Thanks
Nicole
Why do I sometimes see “l’on” rather than “on” used as a subject?
bonjour!
Alors, je voulais poser un question
"Jpensé si on peux utiliser Nous vous avons les montre "
Du coup, en peux utiliser " Nous leur avons les montre "
Merci en avance
In the quiz question
Mon frère, ________ la femme est prof, est architecte.
I originally put 'dont', then second-guessed myself and wrote 'de qui'. I was marked wrong. But in the lesson it states that de qui is also correct, just much less common.
So shouldn't it also be accepted as an answer?
"Party favours" in not a term in use in Australia as far as I can ascertain, and I had never heard of them (with either of the meanings I discovered).
Doesn't help much when the urban dictionary definition is essentially 'hard(er) drugs'!
Luckily, overseas sites advertising other 'party favours' gave a different insight, as did wordreference.

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.
