This is more of a general grammar question, but I don't see how the sentence "She will get a refund." is in the same family of sentences as all the other examples. Why is it not something like "She's having [her purchase] refunded"?
assister + à = to attend
How to choose properly, whether should i use disjunctive pronouns or COI. Je telephone a elle or Je lui telephone? A real conundrum to me!
Is it possible to use à instead of 'en' when saying "Je suis à ville."?.....Thirza0
Bonjour,
Was wondering about the word frais since it means fresh. I thought that fresh fruit would be similar to saying l'enfant est frais. Or would I be wrong in my following examples.
Le fruit est frais
The fruit is fresh
L'enfant est frais
Can I also say
Le frais Enfant
The fresh kid
Thanks
Nicole
The corrections give the options of both subjunctive and indicative conjugation following the verb "esperer". Can you clarify? Thanks
In the poem "Tristesses de la lune" by Charles Baudelaire, there is a usage of "ainsi que" like:"Ce soir, la lune rêve avec plus de paresse ; Ainsi qu'une beauté..."
First I failed to include this usage to any of the ones above. However, I'm now inclined to think that it means "this way... that". An explanation would be great. Thanks.
I think, in English we would say "l am in front of you ".. "before you " does not sound correct.
Why is passé composé used in the first sentence, Je n’ai jamais aimé… ? If you never have liked the seaside, not before and not now, isn’t that an ongoing feeling and should therefore be in l’imparfait? Isn’t it also expressing an opinion and should be in l’imparfait? What am I missing?
