Referencing the lesson: 'Using le, la, l', les before nouns when generalising (definite articles)' why is 'Salut les filles' correct as 'les filles' refers to a specific group and not to a group in general. Thank you
Vraiment?
Hi. Twice I've been marked wrong when I omitted the "heures" when filling in the blanks for a library or such open from one hour to another. It appears that the computer isn't recognizing the section of the lesson ("between to times"). Why? Very confusing.
Merci beaucoup, vous m'avez donné beaucoup de plaisir avec cet exercice - j'ai regardé quelques de ses vidéos sur YouTube (surtout celles avec des sous-titres, dont il n'y en a pas beaucoup). Je me pleurais de rire, aussi.
1 or 2 is correct ?
1. dès que je l'ai réglé / 2. dès que je l'aie réglé
3 or 4 or 5 is correct ?
3. parler au traiteur / 4. parler à traiteur / 5. parler avec traiteur
Thanks
Nellie
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.
My petit quiz question was Nous mettrons la table ... which was translated as "We'll lay the table ..." In the US, we use "set" not "lay," the latter having an uncomfortable connotation!
In the above question, the answer in the test shows “lui” but shouldn’t it be l’ since the verb starts with vowel?
Bonjour — do you not use the liaison after “vais”? Is it optional or forbidden? Merci.
