French language Q&A Forum

In the first sentence I translated "refers to" as "se réfère à" and was marked wrong. I also used 'atténuer' to translate 'dampen', and that was marked wrong, too.  Are those corrections really correct?

Can you help me with french sounds??

Especially the nasal sounds...

 Looking for more detail on these verbs, I couldn't find ANY French verb conjugation sites that conjugated verbs like AMUSER, MAQUILLER, REPOSER, or even DÉCÉDER with ÊTRE. They all use AVOIR. Why is that?

Apologies if this is the wrong topic, but does pense que express uncertainty such that it would be followed by a subjunctive?

Thanks!

Hi, do the weekend workouts get added to the relevant category (in this case Writing B1)?

I’m wondering if I’m seeing the WWs by working through the main Writing/Reading/etc. categories, or if I need to go through the WWs as an additional activity. 

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.

Somehow it was hard to understand the verbes after »elle » but of course it’s my fault, I need to study

In the song "Tu vas me détruire", we have the sentence "Lentement, je m'y noierai, sans qu'un remord ne me vienne". It seems to me this violates the rule that ne explétif is not used when the main tense is not used with negation.

For the term, change of scenery, the exercise used, "le dépaysement" with un changement de décor used as alternative. I was wondering just what the distinction or nuance in the 2 terms is. Please explain when you would use one over the other. Thanks.
