The recommended translation for 'what a powerful voice that man had!' is 'quelle voix puissante avait cet homme !'. I don't actually see this usage of inversion covered in any grammar guides. Is it the norm to invert subject and verb in a sentence beginning with an exclamatory adjective?

Moi j'ai dit "une petite gorge irritée" comme j'ai vu sur WordReference, mais ce n'était pas correcte. Est-ce que c'est trop familier pour cette situation? Merci d'avance! 

Hi there,

In the examples given in this lesson one of the speakers pronounce "Elle s'assied avec Paul/Elle s'assoit avec Paul" with the d/t at the end.
I thought maybe this was due to having a vowel following it, but on the other examples above there are also "Avec" following the Assied/assoit and omitting the last consonant!

 Any ideas?

Thanks.

Considering the general tendency to drop ne in spoken French, could it also be omitted in the examples used in the lesson? For example, would the sentence « Tu as peur qu’il parte » still make sense? Is it grammatically incorrect without the ne or does its meaning change when ne is dropped?

Why does pronom relatif eliminates a subject complement.

Eg:J'ai rencontré par hasard une amie;je ne l'avais pas vu depuis mon enfance.

Hi, in “les enfants sont bel et bien notre avenir” is “bel et bien” an invariable expression? And is that why we don’t have “les enfants sont beaux et bien” instead?

Hi 

I am looking for a lesson which explains how in reflexive verbs in passe compose the past participle does not agree in gender and number with the subject if the object is indirect. 

What is the difference between "il semble que" and "il paraît que" in terms of usage?
