I’m wondering what the extra "t" is doing here? Avait-il is marked wrong. (It’s an interesting exercise!)
The answer given is je l'ai ecoutee. Why isn't it Je lui ai ecoutee, as we are listening to her? Ah, is is because it's not a transitive 'to', ?
I would find it helpful to have a lesson on the use of toujours vs encore. I tend to mix them up in French.
E.g.
Je me souviens toujours de ton sourire
Je me souviens encore de ton sourire
Or:
Je t'aime toujours
Je t'aime encore
The same in the negative:
Je n'ai pas encore travaillé
Je n'ai pas toujours travaillé
I know these have different meanings but I think I'm often mixing them up.
This type of exercise is my favorite, where there is an almost one-to-one equivalence between the English and French words and groups of words for translation. I have two small questions.
1. To denote nutritious, can we say: nutritif or nutritive?
2. To denote recover, can we say: se rétablir ainsi que récupérer?
Thanks!
Word Reference gave 'se composer de' as the first choice. Why is this not accepted in this context? Thanks in advance.
What is the difference between "constater" and "remarquer" to say "to notice" something? My Canadian teacher always uses 'constater' in these cases.
As the speaker is female, should “Bonjour Marc. Je suis demi de mêlée” be “Bonjour Marc. Je suis demie de mêlée”?
The title shows as "Studylist for exercise %s" instead of "Studylist for exercise My neighborhood."
