We just say Hawaï and not le Hawaï even though it's a state/region and not a city?
Why does repondre keep the d in the present tense when prendre loses it and yet they are supposed to follow the same rule as irregulars?
Hi there!
Just a few things I noticed about this exercise that may be errors:
1) One sentence to be translated had "...Œil de Lynx (Eagle Eye)..." but then did not translate "Eagle Eye".
2) In the sentence with "...la cape noire à doublure rouge..." a lesson was provided below for compound nouns formed with prepositions. However, that lesson does not explain this grammar issue, and it seems to me that this is not technically a compound noun...perhaps a different grammar rule would explain this? (For example "a frying pan" would be a compound noun but "a black pan with a red handle" would not be, I believe).
Finally, a grammar question: What is the difference between the usage of seul and seulement? (I'm wondering why saying "Seulment le journalist" in the third to last sentence is incorrect).
Merci!
The question was : Vous ________ arriver d'ici là.
You will have been able to get there by then.Why was my answer which was, "auriez pu y", marked as wrong?Why would saying "Je suis faim" be incorrect, but "J'ai faim" is correct? aren't these both correct to say "I am hungry"?
