French language Q&A Forum

This question was asked in a previous quiz, and the answer was you cannot tell the gender of the ‘“amie”. I understand that the ending e makes it a female friend, but if the question is verbalized, that is not available information. In the quiz I just took, the answer is ‘a woman’. I am confused as to how to answer this question in future quizzes, as two different answers have been given.

I am having great difficulty with this despite various peoples attempt to explain. Could someone give a few more examples in English, just breaking the sentence down and showing how you understand which is the subject and which is the object. Thank you!

Is "mes vestes légères" the liaison between vestes légères usual ? 

How do I reread writing exercises full text without having to do whole exercise again.  

Thanks. M

Bonjour :)

In this statement: If there is a pronoun before the infinitive, ne pas precedes it.

Which pronoun are we talking about here? Direct or Indirect? The examples above exhibit both, so I'm a bit confused.

Merci :)

Hi, it's not clear to me from the instructions whether you're meant to attempt the dictees after only one listen, or whether it's better to listen more than once. Is there a guideline here, or is it just left to the student to choose?

Thanks

Punctuation isn't mentioned in the dictation so should not be counted in the score (feedback from my year 11 students).
