Following on from my question about queue and line.. if I recognise the problem and simply do not answer the question.. it keeps coming up time and again as the first question in a Kwiz.. am thinking it would be easy enough to create a rule that if somebody did not answer a question three times in a row it was highly likely that they were ignoring the question and Kwizbot should stop asking it.. at least for a week.
"Il faudra qu'on se refasse ça à l'occasion". I am unclear about the function of "se" in this sentence. Would it also be correct to say "Il faudra qu'on refasse ça à l'occasion" to mean "We'll have to do this again sometime"?
is there a list of verbs that do or do not take the ne expletif
I get really confused with knowing when to use expressions such as "à laquelle". I've read the lesson however for this text for example, why can't I use "que" as well as "à laquelle" for - 'une surprise à laquelle je ne m'attendais pas du tout' ?
For this example:
Je ne comprends pas le temps que ça lui prend de se préparer !I don't understand the time she takes to get ready!
Isn't the subjunctive of prendre supposed to be prenne?
C' ____(être) une petite histoire de la brosse à dents que je ____(lire). Ce sont des Chinois qui _____(inventer) la brosse à dents au 15 siècle. A cette époque* - là, elle ____(être) faite de poils de sangliers* et d'un manche en ivoire*. Les Français _____(commencer) à se servir d'une brosse à dents sous Louis XIV.
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
I wrote 'rencontrerez' for the future of the verb rencontre, & I got it right in the fill-in-the-blank exercise Horoscope de l'année (Le Futur); however, it doesn't seem to fit into the pattern for either regular -er and -ir verbs in the future or -re and -dre verbs in the future, and it directed me to this page, so I'm confused.
