ive obviously missed something, but why do we need les here when tous means all (ofthem)?
I also had difficulties understanding the sentences because the audio was too fast for me. However, I understand that the french speak fast and I need to spend a lot of time listening to spoken french for my ears to get used to it.
I've seen both of these as phrases on Kwiziq:
Plus je regarde la télévision...Plus je mange du chocolat... (The more I eat chocolate...)
When do we use the article (la, le) vs de la and du. Specifically, why isn't "Plus je mange le chocolat" correct here?
When should you use offrir instead of donner to say give?
I said "Grâce à sa bonté et à sa joie de vivre" instead of "Grâce à sa gentillesse et à sa joie de vivre" and was marked wrong. Isn't "bonté" French for "Kindness"? Thanks.
In the writing exercise, the author gives blood every Saturday. I used “je donne le sang”, but the only correct answer was “je donne mon sang”. I am used to thinking about always using the definite article for parts of the body. Why would this not apply in this situation?
Thank you!
This list seems a bit incomplete. What about other vocab such as :
rain / rainy
hot / cold / sunny
Now that is bizarre!
Hi, could you say a few words about “qui que ce soit”. Is this a special construction of some kind?
I'm thinking there may be a mistake in the translation of this phrase:
"mais la Tour Eiffel s'incline face au vent"
The translation is given as "the Eiffel Tower tilts into the wind" but this doesn't make sense from a scientific point of view!
