Why is there an "s" at the end of déçus when the subject is singular?
Ugh! "J'ai trois chats, dont (ainsi que) deux chats siamois". I know that this lesson was gearing towards DONT but would not ainsi que work as well?
Sometimes I really struggle with deciding whether to use imparfait or passé composé. In this example, the English phrase is:
"I've always dreamed of going (there),
For me, I translated this to "Je rêvais toujours d'y aller," as it is something in the past, but not a fixed point with a clear start and stop. It is something that occurred over a period of time and is still occurring. However, the correct answer was passé composé with "J'ai toujours rêvé d'y aller,"
Can you please explain to my why passé composé is used here and not imparfait? I'm very frustrated and feel like this is something I'm never going to get.
For this question, is it okay to use": "Il te faut son lit". I understand that il faut can be used in a general sense and also to give instructions to a specific person. So my answer should be correct right? The correct answer is": Il faut son lit. I want to know if both are correct or not. Appreciate any further insights. Merci :)
________ son lit.You must make your bed.
In the lesson this example is given: Il rend visite à ses parents.When I took a quiz, I chose: Elle rend visite à ses grand-parents. It was marked incorrect. Should have been “au grand-parents”. I can’t figure out the difference.
I don`t understand why this sentence ("She hid until he left." ?after) could not be the second sentence below just as much as it could be the first one....
Elle s'est cachée jusqu'à ce qu'il soit parti. Correct Elle s'est cachée jusqu'à ce qu'il parte. WrongCan you give me some questions where I have to put je or j’
Why in the phrase "J'ai plus de livres que toi" the letter S is readable, and in the phrase "Tom a plus de cent euros dans son porte-feuille !" - not?
Le leçon dit: To say to scare [someone] in French, you use the expression faire peur à + [quelqu'un].
Literally : "to do/give fear to [someone]"
À Halloween, je fais peur à mes neveux !At Halloween, I scare my nephews!
Donc, pourquoi est "Le fantôme fait peur à elle" incorrect?
The ghost scares her." ?
Le fantôme lui fait peur. Le fantôme fait peur à elle. (Marked wrong--pourquoi?)MerciA minor thing but: at the top of the answers given for each exercise it shows a dash after each number but under "Kwizbot's Answer" it shows a period after each number, except for #6, which shows no punctuation. In "Here's the full text for you to read and listen to:" there is no punctuation given after any of the numbers.
What is the convention for numbered lists like this en français ?
