I see that the answer is à and not en. Why is en not appropriate in this case?
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.
I have gone to my notebook repeatedly, but the Kwik Kwiz says this:
You took this Kwiz 21 hours, 54 minutes ago.
This lesson is already in your notebook. Go to your notebook now to kwiz this topic as many times as you like.
How can I retake this quiz? I am struggling with this particular subject and really want to retake the kwiz.
I'm wondering if A2 exercises will also incorporate A1 lessons or if everything is self contained? I skipped a lot of A1 exercises because I was about 40% into A2 prior to starting and wanted to finish the level.
Will I have to go back and complete A1 exercises in order to test myself of that criteria, or would it be included in A2 exercises? I just don't want to forget some random A1 lesson because I never see it again, especially as I start moving into higher levels.
In the explanation of when to se faire vice faire, I think the following statement would have helped me more:
If the thing that is being done to or for is the subject of the verb ...
I am still confused about les and leur objects
The rules you give are quite useful. Thank you.
One thing that I would add is that I can remember easier if I think in terms of who is actually entering. If the Subject is entering, then we use être, but if the "entering" is being done by someone/something other than the Subject, then we use avoir.
Mes filles sont entrées en CP cette année. -> Mes filles
Nous avons entré les informations dans le programme. -> les informations
This works in other cases where we need to decide between avoir and être. (or where the sentence seems to indicate that the action is not done by the sentence subject)
In the lesson, there are two examples given:
1. Nous sommes gentils
2. On est gentils
In the second example, why is there “s” on the end of gentils? Should it not be gentil - since “on” is 3rd person singular?
