Bonjour,
Selon la leçon , IL+pronom+faut+nom. Pourquoi y-a-t-il "de" dans: Il lui faut de l'aide. Je ne comprends pas. SVP, l'expliquez- moi! Merci d'avance.
I just asked my French son in law if he or his friends or family ever call it "Saint Sylvestre", and he says,
"non on ne dit jamais ca, on dit juste le nouvel an."Is it really very common to say Saint Sylvestre? Could that be regional, eg in Paris as opposed to southern part of the country where he's from?
Bonjour - what purpose does the “le” in this exercise sentence have?
Nous paraissons plus jeunes que nous le sommes.
We look younger than we are.Merci beaucoup
I am not an astronomer but I believe the correct term for describing earth's movement around the sun is not "rotation" but "revolution." I think it would be correct to say,
"...en fait, la révolution de la Terre autour du Soleil dure quelques heures de plus chaque année."
If I recall, the hint was to use the term, 'Ivory Coast', which tricked me up. I normally would use 'Côte d'Ivoire'. I opted to accept the hint, which was not accepted. I felt duped by the hint. Perhaps others fell into this same trap. Take a look at it.
What is the difference between 'Alors' and 'Puis'
on est perdus..... why plural ? on can take the place of nous ... is that the reason ?
This sounds like an opinion to me. I thought it should be in the imparfait. Could someone kindly shed light on this for me?
We were asked to translate "around the globe." The answer was given as "du monde entier." Why not "autour du globe"?
