I had the same problem that Kathleen had even after I listened to it a number of times.  Of course, once I saw the correct version, it was wonderfully clear!

Hello,

When working with negation what is the easiest way to remember when to keep the indefinite article and not the definite article?

Example: can we do like I do not like meat nor fish since you can have some of the meat and some of the fish they would not keep the indefinite article correct?

Thanks

Nicole

It would have been helpful to those of us who have never read Harry Potter to have words which come from the book in the helpful hints section.

Bonjour forum et les experts

Au sujet de la parte de la phrase,  'dont il avait pu admirer les grandes percées' , je  me demande si c'est également correcte de l'écrire, 'dont il avait été capable d'admirer les grandes percées' ?

Can someone please explain why the correct answer is:

"Alain s'attendait à ce que cette situation se résolve d'elle-même."

I don't see any sense of "dread" in the reading of this sentence.
