French language Q&A Forum

“jamais encore” is not acceptable?  You cannot say “ Marco n'ira jamais encore à un concert de rock”?

Why is there a 'le' between 'tu' and veuilles in this sentence 'C'est comme ça, que tu le veuilles ou pas' instead of just que tu veuilles.

Why is there no "s" at the end of "quelque"? Would it ever have an "s"?

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

the answer given as correct for, Elle fait de la danse , is She takes dance lessons.    Surely it would mention ‘lesson’ in the French? Doesn’t it just mean she goes dancing regularly? 

merci

Hi, 

This sentence:

Palme d’Or is the highest prize awarded every year at the Cannes film festival. = La Palme d'Or est la plus haute distinction décernée chaque année au Festival de Cannes.

Why is it décernée with the extra "e"? Thank you

The excercise translation was poires rose, while the complete tesxt at the end was pois roses. This sort of thing and punctuation at the end of phrases indicated as errors makes me doubt the utility of these exercises.

In English if there are two children then he or she is the elder not the eldest.

Eldest is used when there are three or more.

Why is the sujet not sa peau ?

why is "complimentaient" conjugated for des lèvres et cheveux as the subject ?
