Why can't I use "relâcher" here? As that verb means to relax a muscle?
Bonjour! When would one use dans for travel that is enclosed (i.e. bus, metro) vs using en? Thanks!
as title says
Good morning. Respectfully, French Canadian does not only mean Québécois. It includes them and they are in fact a majority but we have many other French Canadians across beautiful country. Thank you.
This was the first test that I completed and I felt that it is difficult to here the some words because of the liaison. How can I get better with listening.
He makes "derrière" sound like "dye air". (Of course, one has to deal with accents, but this one made his part of the dialogue quite challenging.)
Is this an idiomatic exclamation? I don't see what the 'que' is doing grammatically.
I've been taught this phrase in another course but never really understood its use - ça y est. It was presented to me as one of those catchall phrases for "yes, that's right!", "yeah, that's it" as a somewhat utterance one makes to ones self (or to others) that you've been suddenly successful at something or an acknowledgment that you're at least on the right track. So I used this here instead of "c'est ça". Did I use it correctly? I actually had "c'est ça" first but then I changed it to see if I had actually finally found a way to use "ça y est" correctly.
(By the way, why can't I use the hold down the keyboard trick to apply accents, etc in this Q & A box? I have to admit it prevents me oftentimes from asking questions since I can't be precise.)
