Isn't "après-midi" masculine, and if so should it not be:
cet après-midi sera consacré
Hello. I took a level test, and now the recommended study plan is always in that level. How can I get back to the Kwizbot just making recommendations based on my brain map and not on the level I selected to test?
The conjugation that you provide includes the following line:
il / elle / on est apparu(e)(s)
Under which circumstances would it be valid to have "est apparus" or "est apparues"? Or is the "(s)" redundant?
Yes, for introducing me to some new expressions, i.e. "tu n'as pas l'air dans ton assiette", "j'ai du mal à fermer l'œil" and "de fester de marbre". Now, to try to use them!
Just to be sure. Negation also requires masculine form, am I right ?
La jupe coûte 30€. - Ce n'est pas cher !
The rules you give are quite useful. Thank you.
One thing that I would add is that I can remember easier if I think in terms of who is actually entering. If the Subject is entering, then we use être, but if the "entering" is being done by someone/something other than the Subject, then we use avoir.
Mes filles sont entrées en CP cette année. -> Mes filles
Nous avons entré les informations dans le programme. -> les informations
This works in other cases where we need to decide between avoir and être. (or where the sentence seems to indicate that the action is not done by the sentence subject)
Nevermind, I think I just heard it wrong
Is there any way of speeding up the audio to something more akin to proper speech?
When/why do we use article définis before the Auxiliary?
