Pour moi , cet article est très intéressant. Je ne savais pas que Il y a 29 pays où le Français est soit parlé. Autre curiosité que j'ai trouvé ce que au Viet Nam était une colonie française et que cette langue est parlé dans les relations diplomatiques comment aux Comores. Ici en Colombie le Français a devenu une langue populaire entre les jeunes colombien.
How is "5:30 AM" or "0530" said in French using the 24-hour clock?
The meanings of present participle
when I use "present participle" İn the begining of the sentences, does it mean "Because and after?
1-En me réveillant à 6h, j’ai fini avant midi.=Because I woke up at 6 am, I finished before noon.
2-En me réveillant à 6h,Je suis allé à l'école= After I got up at 6 am,I went to School?
Please help :)
I wrote out « dix-septième siècle » instead of « XVIIe siècle », but was counted off for that. Is it not correct to spell out the ordinal numbers?
Thank you
Is there a difference of meaning between these two words? If yes, what is it?
I teach Spanish and French. In the preterit Spanish, SABER (their equivalent of savoir) carries the idea of someone finding out a fact or knowing it for a short time. Is this true in French in the passé composé?
In other words, does "j'ai su son nom" carry the idea "I found out his name"? Or even "I knew his name; but forgot it"?
I did not find this text very useful. Too much language that we are unlikely to encounter in everyday French.
Est-ce que la bilingue histoire est disponible, s'il vous plaît?
Bonjour,
With regards to Cher Matt, chère Kate. If you are are writing a letter or a card and it's to both of them, could you default to the masculine version and say Cher Matt et Kate?
Merci
