The final transcript and the bottom 'correct answer line' in the exercise still have '...qui émanaient de ce coin de m'ont accompagnéeS .....' instead of just "....m'ont accompagnée" - agreement with the speaker's gender. The upper line 'best answer' indicated in the exercise is correct however. Cécile has answered a query on this previously. (I think I remember correctly what was presented in the exercise, but can't go back to recheck)
I must admit I often ignore 'agreement' like this when a text is in first person singular, and instead just use the 'agreement' that applies to me.
More on in line.. accepted that Americans call a queue a line but in ordinary English, standing in a line is a common enough thing to do without being anywhere near a queue so maybe need to accept en ligne as well.
In the lesson where you have the example to hand, there is a clue but not in general Kwizes.
Instead of "... améliorer mon français" could we use "... m'améliorer le français" ?
In a quiz, and i'm paraphrasing, "Ce soir, Paul sera gentil avec Lise." Why is Paul not nice "à Lise?"
Merci.
Can anybody help me convert a French verb into a French noun? Is there any particular rule or grammatical tips or tricks that I can change a french verb into a french noun? Please help me.
I really enjoy these exercises and they really assist in learning and improving my french.
Is it possible to see the "full" English translation? Without having to do the exercise again and each phrase separately.
This would help me to view the English translation and see where I deferred but also cement some expressions.
Thank you
I recently did the lesson on "avoir envie de" (Avoir envie de = To feel like, want to (French Expressions with avoir)%252Fsearch%253Fs%253Denvie), which includes as an example "J'ai envie d'aller aux toilettes". I used this phrase in this exercise and was marked wrong. Was it correct? Are there any guidelines for which "need" phrase is most appropriate for a given situation?
How is "5:30 AM" or "0530" said in French using the 24-hour clock?
"nous nous sommes fait faire les ongles"
Why is "fait" not "faites" that multiple females had their nails done?
In this text, why does she say 'J'ai vécu', but then say 'Je faisais partie' et 'J'organisais'....
I am wondering why the different tenses here, as surely 'living' was an on-going occurrence ?
