Why is it "après-midis entières" and not "entiers" since "midi" is masculine?
Bonjour ! Vous pouvez m'aider à trouver les verbes qui sont toujours avec des pronoms toniques. Je connais quelques verbes (penser à /songer à /s'intéresser à) mais je ne peux pas trouver une complète liste ! Ou une façon de reconnaître ces verbes...
Hi, for “but I used to play it all the time when I was a teenager” we are given the answer “mais j'y jouais tout le temps lorsque j'étais adolescente”.
I had put “mais je le jouais…”. What’s a good way to interpret why it should be “y” and not “le”?
Thanks, Brian
The narrator is recalling events that happened on only one occasion and instantaneously. Why does she use the imperfect?
same problem, cant retake the quiz, very annoying
Can someone help? I learnt what I thought was a beautiful French expression with 'comprendre' which meant basically "I am confused". It woud be in a form like "I am confused please explain it to me more".. with the verb comprendre.
This lesson reminded me of it but I cannot recall the precise syntax now! Anyone? Thanks!
Hello team.
In the writing challenge, 'when my dad and I would get up at the crack of dawn', is translated as 'où mon papa et moi nous levions aux aurores' .
Please explain why the reflexive is not used here as in 'où mon papa et moi nous nous levions aux aurores' ?
After all, the verb 'se lever' is reflexive, right?
Thank you
