Can the above adjectives be used interchangeably in this exercise, as only 'hilarant' was provided in the correct options.
I came up with: Si il est mieux, le médicin lui donnera un certificat médical.
Thanks in advance
Are the baby names inherently masculine, or do they have female counterparts too, such as un chiot --> une chiotte; un chaton --> une chatonne etc?
What is the difference between avoir du mal à and avoir du mal avec. I was marked wrong for avoir du mal à (math) but the lesson seems to indicate one can use either. Thanks.
Yes “J’irais” is the right answer but, “J’irais bien” is also correct.
The quick quiz offers this:
"Vous faites la queue avec ma mère." means:You are queueing [US: standing in line] with your mother
Doesn't it mean "You are queueing with MY mother"? which is not one of the choices in the exercise.
In the lesson, there are two examples given:
1. Nous sommes gentils
2. On est gentils
In the second example, why is there “s” on the end of gentils? Should it not be gentil - since “on” is 3rd person singular?
Hi, for “I'd rather be a witch!” = “Je préfèrerais être une sorcière !”. Should the spelling be “préférerais”?
Also, just to let you know, the audio for “ dont je me servirais dans des buts plus ou moins néfastes...” needs correcting.
I do not understand why "Sams does Aikido" is translated as "Sam fait de l'aïkido.". The lesson says that in front of masculine nouns that de le and les will contract to du and des. Why is this not "Sam fait du aïkido"?
Thank you.
You have two different lessons that both cover regions and states. One says to use "en/au/aux" and the other says "en/dans l'/dans le." (I'm simplifying just to point out where they differ -- there's more info than that, but other than that they don't clash.)
The article that includes "counties" in the title doesn't actually include any counties. The article that includes "countries" in the title does include counties.
So maddening. Both lessons need to be rewritten.
