Line 7: My answer of vingt-huit was marked incorrect compared to Kwizbot's answer of ving-huit - no 't' at the end of vingt.
"Je pense que les gens qui considerent ce jeu puerile..." The speaker, the "gens" and the game are all masculine, so why is puerile in the feminine form? Should it not be pueril?
What can only be at the end of the sentence, and you use quoi and NOT que.
I spent a while trying to understand this sentence, as there are several examples given later on with "que" or "qu’" at the beginning, eg qu’est-ce ?", "que veut-il ?"and indeed those starting "qu’est-ce que". I reckoned it only applies to your first group of sentences where intonation, rather than inversion is used to ask the question - is that right?
Hello, I had to translate « I would like some more love in my life ». My understanding was that voudrais is used when I’m asking for something to be given to me, such as a drink or object, and aimerais is used when I would like something to happen as opposed to being given a physical object. However, this was marked wrong. Is using aimerais in this example very unnatural? Thank you!
A beautiful and fun exercise! Merci beaucoup. Loved it
Why is it "J'ai du mal à (verb)", instead of "J'ai du mal a (verb)"?
I only know we use it for locations, such as "Je suis à Paris"
How does the scoring work on these exercises. I know i got several things wrong, but I would have thought it was better than 1 out of 75. Please advise.
To make the distinction clearer between the 1st and 2nd examples at the start of this lesson, instead of the translation, 'I don't care about the other options' you may wish to add 'THE other'
