What's the rationale for using 'jeunes maries' (sorry, doesn't do accent in the boxes) and not 'nouveaux maries' here?
"à tout ce que l'avenir leur réservait": I translate this for myself as "all the future will hold for them". To me it is counterintuitive to use a past tense (even continuous past tense) for events occuring in the future. Please help me make sense of this use of the imparfait.
I answered "je n'en ai aucun". Is this not correct as well as just "aucun" ? The example that Celine gives below seems to indicate that's an option.
HI,
I forget what lesson in A1 I saw this and now I can't find it. But one sentence has c'est un Vieux sac for it's an old bag but the second one is c'est un vieil home for he's an old man. My question is why is c'est for he is or she is shouldn't it be il/Elle est?
Thanks
Nicole

Line 2:
Oh, mes rhumatismes me dérangent un peu......
Is the 'me' before dérangent missing? I've listened several times but can't hear it.
the fastest way to learn and use French
If On is used to say we as a group with which you're familiar with and are part of, does that mean saying it for other groups or just random groups of people means it becomes "One Or People" ? And do French speakers receive it as so ?
Is it because manquer implies nagativity?
Can you help me with french sounds??
Especially the nasal sounds...
