No two ways about it, listening practice is everything. Took me a while to get my lug (ear to an English person) around this dictation but pleased with the results.
I wonder, is the object of this sentence ("la" in) "Tu la suis, ou quoi?" (Are you following her, or what?) part of an expression; a special kind of object pronoun; or just the article for an unspoken feminine object of the sentence (fille/dame)?
The correct answer was auraient dû partir. Why not seraient dû partir ?
Why are the color adjectives for the flowers singular but not for the lilies?
I can't figure out when to use "ou non" or "ou pas" when using the que....expression. I'm wrong 50% of the time!
Pouvez-vous me donner les recettes svp?
pour profiter des concerts gratuits. sounds like pour profiter les concerts gratuits.
I'm a bit confused about the status of indirect objects as described in this lesson (and in the video). To my knowledge of English grammar, in "I speak to Paul", "to Paul" is a prepositional phrase and not a preposition (to) + an indirect object (Paul). Also, as far as I know indirect objects cannot occur without the presence of direct objects.
Can I instead just memorize that you use the pronouns "lui" and "leur" only with verbs that are normally followed by "à"?
