I wrote “nous sommes ouvertes” as it was “the Bank” that was giving the information or am I just being too literal here ?
The corrections recommend that these adjectives appear before the word "beffroi." Same situation with "épaisse muraille." Why?
This question comes up again. In the corrections, "les maisons surmontées par une grande église" and "les maisons surmontées d'une grande église" are both suggested. I thought "par" was closer to "by" in English and "de" was closer to "with." Is this wrong?
Hello,
I'm having trouble with my sentence structures. Specifically, after the first verb in a sentence, when i present the second verb I dont know when to use "a", "de" or "pour". I would love some clarification on this!
Some examples for clarification:
- J'ai beacoup a faire
- Je veux parler francais (none of those intermediate words mentioned)
- On disait que des trucs sympas sur lui
- J'essaie juste d'oublier
- Je suis venue pour gagner
- C'est important d'etre gentil
Sorry for these examples, these are phrases I pulled from a magazine!
Why isn’t it chère when describing the cost of the PlayStation which is feminine?
So instead of using Je I have to use J'ai ? Am I understanding this correctly?
in the fillin the blank quiz for the plus-que -parfait, my answer was marked as nearly correct yet i do not understand why
