Is it not necessary to have a verb to accompany the adjective for l'autre ?
In a question it was used : "Ils sont différents: l'un est petit et l'autre est grand."
In the example it wasn't :Tom et Maxime sont très différents: l'un est calme et l'autre ( ) hyperactif.
Is there a distinction?
Did you know that the position of adverbs can vary in French just like in English?
Greetings! Just a comment on the content of the article: Those who are ethically opposed to eating foie gras, if they are consistent in the application of those ethics, will probably also be ethically opposed to killing and eating saumon! ;-)
Hello,
Your one of the writing practice exercise suggests the translation for "and the accordion used to touch her chin" as "et l'accordéon lui touchait le menton !"
In the lesson above there is no example of usage of pronouns such as "lui".
That is why I am lacking this concept.
Please add this part also above and let me know so that I can enhance my knowledge on the same.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ashish
I don't understand why we use "année" instead of "an", it seems to me that according to the lesson below, we should be using "an".
An vs année, matin vs matinée, jour vs journée, soir vs soirée to express a time unit or a duration in French
Hi, I was surprised to see that “tous mes amis ont crié” did not use “criés”. Is this because “tous mes amis” is singular (a single group)? And would “mes amis ont criés” be correct (linguistically speaking, not a group, but multiple individuals)?
Hello, how is the word ‘fence’ spelt in French? I wrote clôture and was marked wrong.
Cheers :)
