French language Q&A Forum

Honestly instead of making like 5-6 different articles about all the prepositions for to/from different places, why wouldn't you make a single article with a chart summarizing all of them?

It's a confusing topic, and it's expressed horrendously here on this website in an unnecessarily convoluted manner.

Do either or both of these always imply one of either passing by without entering a place vs passing by and entering.  Some of the examples seem to indicate the former whereas others (la pharmacie par exemple) seem to imply the latter.

thank you

Bonjour - for some reason i'm having a really hard time with this lesson.  My confusion is the fact that the lesson instructs that the order is reversed with reminding someone of someone else, which I understand well enough.

My problem comes in the test, for a perfect example:

"You remind him of Audrey Hepburn" to which the answer is:

Tu lui rappelles Audrey Hepburn

This seems like the exact same order as the English.  Any tips or help would be appreciated.  Merci d'avance.

I always learnt that: " I went up the ladder was" took the verb "être"

Je suis allée jusqu'a l'echelle

Why is it in your example with "avoir". "I went up the stairs"

"J'ai monté les escaliers"??

This part of the lesson is really messing with my learning process. Please answer me this....In the example, "Tu manques à Lise", IS it or IS IT NOT "Lise misses you."  ???
