why is it feminine in this case?
To be completely honest, I couldn't follow this lesson at all. Maybe it's just the way it was written but I found it almost impossible to actually comprehend what was being conveyed and I had to seek out other sources.
Thanks for everything you guys do! I usually love Kwiziq lessons, but I feel like this one needs a rethink.
How could you say "He needs a day off." ?
I answered:
Il a besoin d'un jour de congé.
*Il doit un jour de congé*
whats the difference and which one is correct
Le chocolat plaît à Martha.
Le chocolat te plaît
it is really confusing
Hello,
I see there's an example: "Quels bonbons tu as choisis?"
I guess that because "bonbons" is a COD in this question and it stands before the verb "choisi" so the verb has to accord with the COD --> it becomes "chosis"
But when I use deepL to try another example: "Which dress did she wear?"
The answer is: "Quelle robe a-t-elle porté?"
My question is shouldn't it be: "Quelle robe a-t-elle portée?"
Or is there an exception I didn't know about? More examples relating to this is very much appreciated.
Thank you.
I don't hear any liason. Is it optional ?
What is meant by ..."qui a su conquérir les petits comme les grands" ?
"We listened to the water".
I would have considered that a past imperfect ie, "Nous ecoutions les bruits de l'eau" because you can't listen to water at a specific moment in time - it's a continuous action in the past. "Nous avons ecoute les bruits de l'eau" isn't appropriate.
We got splashed with water would be passe compose but not a continuous event of listening to the water?
Suggestions please....
The lessons says to use either. Where is the explanation/lesson details?
Are there any other times apart from the negative (saying you don’t have any), when de is used eg d’huile, de pan. I know we say de also before plural nouns with an adjectives preceding the noun
