when the "re" comes before the verbs(for example redonner) does it give the verbs the meaning of again and back everytime? or does it change according to the verbs?
for example:
Je lui ai redonné son style: I gave back him his pen(?)
Je lui ai redonné mon stylo: I gave him my pen again(?)
thanks for comments
Come on guys, faire les magasins is as correct as faire le shopping. You admit this and, besides, you haven't made any distinction between the two options.
in the sentence "J'adorais parler de livres" why de and not des? there is no adjective.
The lesson says quelques can translate as "some" and I’d be interested to know the situation in which you’d use it rather than "des"? Does it emphasise the quantity more?
I thought we need to agree past participle with the number of people... I did, We brushed our hair = Nous nous sommes brossés les cheveux. However, kwizBot said, it was only nearly good, the right answer was: Nous nous sommes brossé les cheveux.
I'm confused, what's my mistake then? Did I misunderstand something?
How would you say - ‘It suits you well’?
Il te va bien? or Ça te va bien?
Would the construction respect gender as well?
Finally when would you use çela over ça?
Thank you
Bonjour ,I had a doubt with the a question — Invites-tu quelqu’un ce soir?
What would be the expected answer in negative ?
I loved this exercise. No idea how long you've been offering it, but I'll be looking for more of them going forward.
Thank you!
I was wondering why it wasn't Vous a-t-il appelée - because Emma is feminine ?
