I don't see why this is plus que parfait. This refers to an action completed in the past. Seems to me "je te l'ai dit" would serve just as well or better.
Les filles aiment ________________ yeux. The girls like your eyes.
Why is my "bien tes" answer marked as incorrect, and the correct answer as aiment. The girls like his eyes, they don't love his eyes.
Thank you
Why does noisette not become plural in this case? I can´t figure this out. I don´t see a double adjective with colors. I also don´t see hazel as a thing like an orange. Maybe that´s what I´m missing.? Is it actually a hazelnut or something? Can you explain this one to me? Thanks so much!
Tu veux venir à la piscine ? Oui, je le veux.
Why not?
Oui, je la piscine.
The "preferred" translation indicates that their son fell asleep "a poings fermes," indicating that he was deeply asleep. I dispute this -- kids may fall asleep with their fists closed, but not tightly unless they are under severe stress. I would suggest that a better indication of deep sleep would be the other suggestion - "il dormait profondement." This is from years of watching a number of sleeping children -- mine and others'. Just a thought....

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".
Why isn't it soit d'argent
Bonjour,
Why isn't vivre considered as a verb of state unlike naître and the others?
Merci :)
