I would suggest that this exercise be set at a higher level. I don't believe this is pegged right for an A1 learner. Perhaps A2 would be better.
One of the Kwizzes had "Achètes-en deux ou trois." for which the answer was "buy two or three of them". I think very often one would omit "of them" in English and wonder if that was a second correct answer, as it was a single-choice question ?
The sentence to be translated: I can listen to them for hours!
I wrote: Je peux les écouter pendant des heures !
The exclamation mark was marked as incorrect even though it was called for in the original sentence.
If you are refering "vous" formally to single person would "Vous n'êtes pas arrivé en retard". Arrivé without the "s".
Ceci représente un usage exclusif et spécifique. Celui des "Hommes" (par rapport aux Femmes). Elle n'a guère de sens général . Je comprends bien que le pronom: "On" ne s'accorde pas s'il y a un sens général ( Ex: Dans cette societe, on est né libre). Cependant, je ne suis pas convaincu que la phrase" En tant qu''Hommes" soit "un sens général"? Expliquez svp
merci d'avance
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.)
What about feeling worse - would that be se sentir plus mal? Is there a reason it’s not included?
