The choice I chose was "the birds sang in the trees" as I thought it was descriptive! as in "Le soleil brillait sur la campagne" the sun shone on the countryside. But the correct answer was "the birds were singing in the trees". Why is this and how to tell the difference? Thanks,
Would "Je pourrais aussi bien" or "Je ferais aussi bien de" work here in the place of "Autant"? Is there a difference in meaning or register between Autant and those phrases, or situations where one would work and not the other? Thanks.
The question 'The last time he came, he didn't behave himself.' is confusing as this could refer to a series of visits rather than a final visit. Therefore either 'la semaine dernière or la dernière semaine '' could be correct
The sound is not clear. I cannot follow the song.
Why do we say "folle aventure" even when "a" is a vowel?
I ai utilisé "se réunir" au lieu de "se retrouver" ou "se rejoindre" mais ce choix n'était pas accepté ? Pourquoi ?
Well i bounced the question of prof / professeur off my neighbour's kids who are at secondary / high school, and to a person they replied prof or professeur. They regard "instituteur / institutrice" as a primary school teacher, and " l'enseignant(e)" as a general word for those in the teaching profession, although if it's at university level "professeur" is the norm. They should know and i'm not going to argue with them. And anyway, the prompts were clear and specific just as Cécile said so i can't see what the issue is ??
