please direct me to a lesson on how/when to use passé composé with imparfait in a sentence
Hi
Could someone please help and explain this one to me?
Thanks in advance
2Which sentence is NOT correct ?L'homme pour qui il travaille est très sympaLes enfants avec qui nous parlons sont françaisLa maison dans qui il habite est très vieilleTu connais la fille avec qui je suis parti en vacancesPourquoi de est utilise en cet phrase, Nous n'avons plus de pain au moins du depuis pain est masculin
As an alternative to en bousculant les passants, couldn’t you say
En faisant les coudes aux passants ?
I hear the reader pronounce the "t" at the end of "fait". Is this correct?
Hello, can you explain more of the difference between "revenir" and "retourner"? I was using "Je revenais à Toulouse" and "Je retournais avec une valise" but it appears to be the opposite. Thank you.
Can anybody explain why this is wrong?.. I can see pour as an alternative but why is pendant wrong here as it is, surely, expressing a duration.
Par exemple, la semaine prochaine, pendant Pâques, nous ferons une chasse aux œufs en français !
Giving "pour" as correct.

Great , I'll just stop now and learn the 400 or so countries, counties and regions I'll need to operate this lesson... maybe one day the next level ...who knows - don't the French make mistakes and stand corrected and move on ?
Someone at the Foreign office once asked if General de Gaulle believed in God? Someone answered - it would depend how good God's French was.!
