'la maison de poupées' is NOT 'the doll's house'.  It is 'the dolls house' or, more pedantically 'the dolls' house'

I don't know what party favours are, let alone what the French word for them might be.

I am always confused about when to use the article le la l’...

We are from (de). does or does not need a    la      or a    du (de le)

Hi there, I was wondering if you could explain the present tense in the following sentence:

Mais c'était avant qu'ils ne reçoivent plus de 15 millions de paquets de la part des 26.000 buralistes de France...

Why is "reçoivent" in present (subjunctive)?

Thanks!

Why is it "Mes pieds sont gelés" rather than "Les pieds sont gelés"?  I understood that you could use la, le, l' when referring to your own body parts.  How can you tell which to use?

Does your car work?

Ta voiture est-elle fonctionne? 

Will it be correct?

Please help!

There's a lesson on A1 telling to use le/les/l' when talking about body parts.

Why on this sentence "et je regarde mes pieds" we use 'mes' instead of 'les'? It is already known whose feet it is on 'je regarde' so I got confused on why the lesson says to use 'les' while on this exercise it is 'mes'.

Thank you!
