Why use 'sont' not 'est' ?
I think 'tout ce que' is musculin singulier
can we use afin de for reflexive verbs? is it a je vais dans la salle debains afin de me laver?
Am struggling to understand why the answer uses the present subjunctive of etre.
Thanks for any help!
I can’t find how to reference multiple days together, is there an example?
“On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I get up at 6.” which of the following is correct?
Le lundi, mercredi et vendredi je me lève à six heures
or
Les lundi, mercredi et vendredi je me lève à six heures
or
Le lundi, le mercredi et le vendredi je me lève à six heures
Thanks
Jon
Small point. 'After studying for your exam..' 'use reviser' , it might be more accurate to use the common English expression, 'after revising for your exam'. Revising implies going over old material, studying usually means learning new material. IMHO
I was wondering how you would put combien into a question with inversion; and I couldn't find any lessons adressing this specifically. This occurred to me while thinking about the question "How many words in the dictionary?" Would it be:
Combien de mots la dictionnaire a-t-elle?
Combien la dictionnaire a-t-elle de mots?
La dictionnaire a-t-elle combien de mots?
Or would it be something different?
Anyway, I just need to ease my curiosity.
Please help me "amis fumeurs", is that a compound noun like le service client, etc, help me explain it. Can I use "des amis qui fument (friends who smoke), somehow, it's similar to smoker friends, right?
Not sure if question was clearly expressed!
