This exercise is far far too long - I get distracted and bored and then I start over another day and the same thing happens. It is now my third week of it and I have not passed Point 1.
It needs to be broken up into different lessons! It makes me very annoyed and it is off putting to continue...
I really don't understand why this can't be translated as "Whom does she see?" It was marked wrong yet it seems to be following all the rules. I'm confused and would appreciate an answer.
Similar question in the quiz (instead a female buying coffee), but when I chose the "some" option (she buys some coffee), I was not granted the score. That's contradictory and confusing. Which is it? With the "some", or without?
Could someone please expand a bit on the part that says “formally, it should be before, but in practice, it often ends up after”?
If, for example, we were to write it after in an exam script, would this be marked down and regarded as an inaccuracy?
Thanks in advance!
Is there a grammar lesson that explains the use and/or necessity of "qui" in this sentence?
Merci.
At this link, https://french.kwiziq.com/revision/glossary/verb-tense-mood/the-french-past-conditional-le-conditionnel-passe the two examples near the top of the page seem to be of the conditionnel présent instead of the conditionnel passé. Am I missing something?
Why is it des fleurs and not des fleures? As i understand it, flowers are feminine.
Thanks
Just to confirm, is a “non-verbal” sentence is a “written” sentence? So we can write down “Pas encore” in response to a question but we can’t actually say it....?
Cheers!
In the case here, the act of receiving presents serves as a general statement about Christmas. To my mind no specific Christmas is understood here; instead all Christmases seem to be the explicit understanding.
Thus, following your grammar explanation, the more correct grammar choice seems to be "à".
