Is récupérer interchangeable with acheter? Can I use récupérer for clothes shopping?
e.g. Je vais récupérer une robe
hi,
I was wondering whats the difference between using the verb Je veux and J'ai besoin de nouvelle voiture? I thought that it can mean the same thing when using Je veux nouvelle voiture.
thanks

A long and overly complicated lesson. Among other weaknesses, It is lacking a summation of the ways in which the same 'thought' can be said differently in French. «To say the day following his arrest or the day preceding/leading to their first date, you will use le jour suivant or le jour précédant + noun.» For instance, does this quoted section, with the directive 'you will use', mean there is something special about arrest and first dates that require the use of suivant or précédant? Can you not use le lendemain de or la veille de here? I am fairly sure I know the answer, but the lesson doesn't cover it. When there are multiple ways of expressing the same 'thought' discussed in a lesson, it is very useful to include that/those thought/s being expressed in those ways to clarify. This could either be done by collecting them into a single 'table' or similar, or by deliberately using the same thought under each of the headings to highlight. Likewise specific exceptions can then be highlighted more clearly.
I see it has been revised relatively recently but the accumulating comments support the need for further thoughtful review.
It is so opinion on specific thing, so lesson says il est. But get marked wrong, is it because it is about colour? But is still a specific colour not colour in general

Can I refer this way only to Anna (respectfully) or the sentence definitely refers to multiple female persons?
Please could we have the facility to click on an English translation for the phrases in the dictation text?
Can ensuite be replaced with puis in this sentence? Are the two interchangeable or is there a slight difference in usage?
Salut, pourquoi est-ce on utilise "etre" au lieu d'avoir dans la phrase dessous:
"je me suis soudain rendu compte que..."
