Hello,
So If I'm understanding this correctly when the definite article is before a noun it remains when the verb is negative?
il aime le Café et le chocolate.
Il n'aime ni le Café ni le chocolate
But if the indefinite or partitive article is before a noun in an affirmative sentence the article is then removed when negative?
Elle commande de l'eau et du vin.
Elle ne commande ni eau ni vin.
Thanks
Nicole
Hello,
So what I'm getting here is use only Est- ce que when you have a yes or no question instead of inverted form?
Thanks
Nicole
Can you use s’intéresser à instead of être intéressé de?
Hi Céline - you have replied to a couple of queries on the writing exercises this week (including this one) asking people to report it on their correction boards. Both people replied that they couldn't find how to do that. And I can't either. I can find neither a "report it" button or a "correction board" on either of the 2 exercises concerned. What are we all missing? Thanks.
Could someone please direct me to the correction board as per Céline's suggestion below?
I've looked everywhere but can't seem to find it.
Hello,
I have a question. I understand how to use the inverted question when you have a vowel -t . But my question is is there an easy way to understand when to use either the Estimate ce- que or the inverted?
Thank you
Nicole
Why are you devient? As in, elle devient une star... Devient seems to be the present tense of devenir; shouldn't you be using the imparfait?
Merci
Tracy
Difference in meaning? Blesser (to hurt someone, injure someone) versus faire mal à quelqu'un?
