There are two examples of the verb, s'avérer, in this exercise:
1)  Et les compétences que j'ai acquises comme avocate se sont avérées inestimables dans ce nouveau domaine.
2)  Ce changement se sera avĂ©rĂ© ĂȘtre la meilleure chose que tu aies jamais faite.
My dictionary translates s'avĂ©rer as "prove to be" or "turn out to be". In the second example, the infinitive ĂȘtre is added to s'avĂ©rer whereas in the first it is absent. Is ĂȘtre optional? If the 'to be' is included in the definition, why is ĂȘtre necessary in the second example?
Maybe its just me, but that last line sounds a lot more like, "Ăa va ĂȘtes sympa." I know that is grammatically incorrect and I put ĂȘtre, but it sure doesn't sound like ĂȘtre to me.
When to use âje me sensâ and when âje sensâ!  The question was "Je ne sens rien." can mean?: and one correct answer was 'I donât feel anything'.  I thought that was incorrect as âmeâ was needed for âfeel' , but seemingly not, so when is it?  Couldf someone explain please?Â
Since the speaker is trying to sound like a ghost, the pronunciation suffers on this one. Just one glaring example - the last sentence, "c'est" sounds like "si".
I had written this as plural: "diffĂ©rentes combinaisions lors des combats", but on listening again, what was said before it was clearly "Ă " rather than "aux", so I changed it to singular: "Ă diffĂ©rente combinaision lors de combats". Â
Since it is actually plural - which certainly makes more sense! - I cannot understand why it isn't "aux différentes combinaisions" ?
I was doing the quiz and there was 2 answers that were the same. I picked the first one and got it wrong because it was the second one. Can someone fix this?
Un excellent travail sur le subjonctif et le vocabulaire. Jâai recopiĂ© les exercices B2 et C1 de cette semaine pour les rĂ©viser plus tard. Merci! : )
The correction function (redlining showing errors and corrections) did not work. It gave correct answers and alternatives but did not correct my text.Â
In this lesson about de/d'in front of adjectives preceding nouns, there are examples:
des endroits magnifiques
de magnifiques gĂąteauxÂ
I understand the point about using de when the adjective precedes, but why is magnifique used both before and after the nouns in these examples?
When writing the answers to the question I seem to be wrong every time. If I use de peur que the answer shows as de crainte que, if I use de crainte que it shows as de peur que. Iâm struggling to tell the difference.
