Hi,

Is there a lesson that explains the difference between amener and emmener as I am always mixing them up !

Thanks

Why is the phrase "notre prof de science nous demandait de préparer ..." in imparfait not passé composé? Since the requests occurred at specific points in time I thought it would be passé composé. Is it because the requests were repeated each year?

"I will pass through Paris." Is one of the below incorrect? Why?

- Je passerai par Paris.

- Je passerai à travers Paris.

In the last sentence, "Exactement Yvan ! Prenez votre temps et restez détendus !", the adjective détendus is plural; the previous comment was directed at Yvan.  I would expect the singular détendu if the comment is directed at Yvan.  Another interpretation is that the comment is directed at both Yvan and his friend or perhaps others in the group.   It is a bit ambiguous.   Do you agree?

Hello experts and learners

Regarding the sentance, 'ce qui a eu pour résultat la création de l'Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française', 

Would it also be correct to write, 'ce qui s'est ensuivi la création de l'Office de Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française'?

:)

The question that led me here asked to fill in the proper tense of the verb ‘venir’ in this sentence:  Il______heir.  I wrote ‘Il est venu heir.’ The correction said the correct answer was Il sont venu. Wouldn’t the ‘sont’ tense be used instead for the third person plural (ils)?

To say in/during the afternoon, we use "dans"? (ex. Il y aura un vent frais dans l'après-midi). To say in/during the morning or evening, we don't use a preposition, correct? (ex. Je vais au marché le matin/ce matin).

Merci de m’avoir fait découvrir ce site vraiment amusant. J’y suis abonnée. : ) 

Bonjour - what purpose does the “le” in this exercise sentence have?
