I don’t understand why you say ‘soit du fromage’ but not ‘soit du travail’
I could not find any lesson explaining the numbers from 0 to 69.
Am I missing something ?
I did not find this text very useful. Too much language that we are unlikely to encounter in everyday French.
Could you please help to answer this example?
In this case, the answer is "y" because of the contraction (à+le) in the sentence?
Direct speech : Ma mère m'a demandé "Qui est-ce avec toi?"
Indirect speech : a. Ma mère m'a demandé qui c'est avec moi.
b. Ma mère m'a demandé qui c’était avec moi.
I would be grateful if anyone can say a or b, which one is right, or any other is possible for this. Thanks in advance.
Why isn't there a "ne" with "avant qu'ils soient dévalisés"?
The quiz question
9Tu as un enfant? -Non, je n'ai pas ________ enfant.Do you have a child? -No, I don't have a child.which leads to this lesson is ambiguous in my opinion. I selected Non, je n'ai pas un enfant purely because I would have expected the english for je n'ai pas un enfant to be I don't have children instead of no, I don't have a child. They have slightly different meanings and I believe my answer to be more accurate. I stand to be corrected on that though?
I am having problems putting this paragraph in context.. seems very isolated and not clearly explained.
Where in English, you'd use of (She reminds me of Paula), there will be no preposition in French (Elle me rappelle de Paula)
Could I technically ask Qu'est-ce qu'il y a la distance entre Paris et Lyon? Would that make sense considering "il y a" can be used in questions.
What is the tense of descendirent, or is there a spelling mistake?
