does participe passé agree with direct object when "on" is the subject of the passive sentence.
for example on l'a regardée (she was watched)(la is feminin article)
ı wish your helps thanks
There is no verb "to go" i.e. "aller". Your answer to this question is "... going to ski"", but the sentence is " faire du ski" !
Il me semble un peu injuste de ne pas offrir les chiffres écrits en mots comme option.
I'm curious about the adjective placement in "fervent défenseur." Would it be equally correct to say "un défenseur fervent" as a way to start this sentence?
Well i bounced the question of prof / professeur off my neighbour's kids who are at secondary / high school, and to a person they replied prof or professeur. They regard "instituteur / institutrice" as a primary school teacher, and " l'enseignant(e)" as a general word for those in the teaching profession, although if it's at university level "professeur" is the norm. They should know and i'm not going to argue with them. And anyway, the prompts were clear and specific just as Cécile said so i can't see what the issue is ??
In the fill-in-the-blank test "Choisir un cadeau", in which one chooses either connaître or savoir (conjugated), two sentences don't fit into the scheme "savoir if clause with conjugated verb or with following infinitive" v. "connaître if followed by noun". These sentences are:
"Ah, c'est bon à _____!" and "Ça, je ne ______ pas!"
The answers for both were savoir and sais. Why?
In the third to last sentence, "puis j'enchaînerai avec quelques séries d'abdos," is "entraînerai" the correct verb? It means to work out or be in training so it seems to me it would be more appropriate here. Enchaînerai means to "be linked", in this context, does that mean to "follow or continue with"? Thanks.
It is listed as adverb and I am confused.
can we say: "Baptiste est mon le plus mauvais ennemi." ?
In the above sentence, why is the correct answer "moins d'énergie que" and not "moins d'énergie que de"? I added the "de" based on this rule: "When expressing there are more/fewer/as many-much [thing/s] than/as [other thing/s], you need to add de after que".
idioms confound me ... "on the edge" of town is different than of a cliff ... what is the idiom for "on the edge of my seat" or almost being driven crazy as saying "he's really on edge" ? maybe an "edgy" lesson?
