Asking a question....

What is wrong with the following phrase? Si vous le dites...Quand a été la dernière fois que vous lui avez parlé? (The correction was - Si vous le dites... Quand lui avez-vous parlé pour la dernière fois ?) Thanks

Hi Viviene, 

I think it's just a case that a direct translation of what is said in English is not often the way the French would express the same thing, that is why a literal hint was given.

Hope this helps!
