Oh la la! In the last phrase of this dictée, "Ils ont eu le droit de manger," it's hard to understand "ont eu."
Was the speaker's mouth full of chocolate eggs? ;)
But seriously, a liaison between "ont_eu" would've made it clearer. Nonetheless, it does seem rather "frenchy" that liaison's aren't necessarily obligatory, but rather subjective, yeah???
Can I say "qui- sont-ce for saying who are they?
who are they =qui sont-ce?
they are my friends= Ce sont mes amis
I also love inventing my own shish kebab skewers........
There is no option for 'also' included in the french translations.
Is there a quick way to see and hear the difference in vowels and the same vowels accented?
Would you give an example of a sentence using the negation "ne . . . point"? Thanks!
Instead of 'si ça avait été mes œufs' could you say 'si cela avait été mes œufs' - or would that be too formal ?
In this lesson you say "Use qui when the following word is a verb or reflexive pronoun (e.g. me, te, se, lui, le, la, nous, vous, leur, les, etc)", but isn't there a mistake here? Can lui, le, la, leur be reflexive pronouns?
In the writing challenge: Not the festival type, the translation given for "If I'd known how it would be" is Si j'avais su comment ça se passerait
May I know why we use plus-que-perfect in the “Si” clause and a conditionnel present in the result clause? Based on what I have learned in French grammar, when the pluperfect tense is used in the “Si” clause, the past conditional tense has to be used in the result clause.
In the question 'Tu en connais des mamans calmes ?' what is the function of 'en' ?
I couldn't tell the difference among 'Je suis allé '(mas) et 'je suis allée'(fem) ou 'nous sommes allés' et 'nous sommes allées' from the audio. In everyday speech, is there any change in pronunciation?
