This test question required the correct definition: 'Elle aura pu finir son travail' and I put 'She will have been able to finish her work'. But the correct answer is 'She will be able to finish her work'. I'm a bit confused (as ever) because above is an example - 'Tu auras pu chanter sur scène' which translates as 'You will have been able to sing on stage'. So is it will have been or will be able? Help!
Can gagner be used for passing an exam same as réussir/avoir/ obtenir? Am asking because i used it once while speaking to someone. After this lesson i wonder if i used it wrongly.
Should “il l’interrompait” be “il l’interromprait”?
The quick Lesson on this sites that in the negative imperative the subject pronoun (tu, vous, nous) is dropped.
In Schaum's Outlines text, I see the following negative imperatives: Ne te reveille pas, Ne nous reveillons pas, and Ne vous reveille pas.
One of the exercise questions in chapter 5 of same text asks for the negative imperative of "Promenez-vous dans le parc" The answer is Ne vous promenez pas dans le parc.
Having trouble understanding this
In all the above examples you use avoir + faire expres de, except on Elle fait exprès d'être en retard.
Could you please explain why it isn't better to say "elle a fait expres d'......"
You show the flag mounted with both the blue side and the red side against the flagpole. This is clearly incorrect.
How would I know which is correct?:
Cette écharpe rappelle ma mère à moi.
Cette écharpe me rappelle ma mère
In "J'aurais pu changer ..." I kept hearing and "l" in "pu." Did anybody else hear this, too?
