French language Q&A Forum

Hi; 

I read this on a spead repetition program. It says:

It is windy today - c'est venteux aujourd'hui

Is this correct? Why does it use c'est insted of Il fait here?

Thanks

Hello, I don't understand why "As tu vu le cousin d'Eve ?" was marked wrong. I don't see anything indicating the cousin was female. 

I’ve seen both answers given in the space of half a hour. Does it depend on context or is this a mistake? Or am I mistaken? Merci.

Regarding this test question and my wrong answer and correct answer:    “How would you say "One has to earn others' respect." in French?

Il faut gagner le respect des autres. (Correct)

Il faut gagner le respect d’autres. (My wrong answer)

 I’ve read the lesson numerous times as well as the discussion below and nothing explains why I was marked wrong on this question. Is there something about “il faut” that is like “se server de” in the lesson’s example that would require “DES autres” instead of  “d’autre”? The translation is not “of THE others”, just the more general “others”.

There appears to be a disarrangement about "ressortir" between yourselves and Collins

Microsoft French dictionary agrees with you.

A problem ?

Is "au courant" invariable, or does it agree with the gender and number of the person?

What convention is usually used when the prepositions "à" or "de" are before the title of a book that begins with "le" or "les", for example "les miserables?"

Will it follow the same preposition structure? Like au, aux, du, des?

Tous les jours, je fais des efforts pour aider la planète. Par example, quand je vais au supermarché, j'apporte mon sac en toile et j'évite les emballages de plastique. Et si j'achète un café à emporter, j'utilise ma tasse réutilisable. À la maison, je ne gaspille pas l'eau et he recycle mes déchets. Quand je ne peux pas faire de vélo, je prends les transports en commun ou je fais du covoiturage. 

Why is this phrase not ""Tu as les billets ? Oui, je les en ai tous."
