Salut a tous
If aux dents is plural how can it be translated as I have a toothache?
Merci
How would you convey the English expression, "Shame on you!"? Or, "Shame on him for eating the last cookie."?
I don't want to sound dumb, but are the adjectives you are using (excellent, magnifique) BAGS adjectives? Because I see you place them in front of the verb, when only BAGS adjectives do that, and I previously thought the only BAGS adjectives in the 'goodness' section were 'mauvais(e), bon(ne), meilleur(e), and gentil(le).' Thanks, May.
J'ai remarqué cette phrase (J'ai arrêté de parler de peur qu'elle ne se mette en colère.) dans un des examens (C1).
On peut utiliser le verbe pronominal dans la même phrase? Je me suis arrêté de parler de peur qu'elle ne se mette en colère? Cette phrase est aussi correcte?
Pourriez-vous m'expliquer la difference entre les deux verbes?
Merci
In the examples above the es in "tu es" is pronounced like the ê in êtes and also like the e in et. Is there a rule for which pronunciation to use when? Or is it more of a regional difference?
I think it must be "le meme" because echarpe is masculine?
In the sentence "...où j'ai vu les plus merveilleuses peintures préhistoriques de ma vie. ", why is tableaux not accepted as a synonym for peintures. My dictionary makes no real distinction between the two words.
What about adding "non" at the end of a question when seeking confirmation?
Such as "Tu parles anglais, non?" as a shorthand for "Tu parles anglais, n'est-ce pas?"
