I've been taught this phrase in another course but never really understood its use - ça y est. It was presented to me as one of those catchall phrases for "yes, that's right!", "yeah, that's it" as a somewhat utterance one makes to ones self (or to others) that you've been suddenly successful at something or an acknowledgment that you're at least on the right track. So I used this here instead of "c'est ça". Did I use it correctly? I actually had "c'est ça" first but then I changed it to see if I had actually finally found a way to use "ça y est" correctly.
(By the way, why can't I use the hold down the keyboard trick to apply accents, etc in this Q & A box? I have to admit it prevents me oftentimes from asking questions since I can't be precise.)
Can you give us a list of all vocabulary as an excel sheet or something? I'd love to make myself some flashcards instead of reading a list for using it with for example the flashcards app Anki. I won't share it if you don't want me to, but if you want to have the Anki deck then you can have it too of course.
J’ai traduit le mot, ’squint’, par ’loucher’ au lieu de ’plisser les yeux’. Le dictionnaire cite tous les deux comme acceptable, mais l’exercice accepte seulement le deuxième. Pourquoi ?
Bonjour, this link tells me that the conjugaison of lever in le futur simple is e without the accent è. Can you please confirm? Merci!

Hi -
I was trying to work out how you would say 'if the weather is good, we can take a walk in the park'. From the above it looks I can either use Se Promener or Faire une Promenade, but im not sure how to combine these with Pouvoir. I assume using 'Faire' it would be:
-s'il fait beau, nous pouvons faire une promenade dans le parc.
1) Is this correct?
2) Is there a way of saying this using the reflexive verb/conjugation with se promoner?
Thank you :)
Why does this sentence change to the vous form of you?
I’m sure the speed was intentional, but it was a difficult listen! I still can’t catch the de in "prendre de tes nouvelles" (tho knew it ought to be there) nor the dès in the last sentence.
Why is there a le in the dependent clause that begins with bien que
I translated this as 'Ce sera tellement rigolote' presuming we were talking about the 'farce' which is feminine. It was corrected as rigolo masculine. ?
