I understand why we use the definite article for one and possessive adjective for the other buy why are they both singular?
Does effort refer to the skiing activity or to the production of the raclette ? The sentence seems a bit ambiguous.
Dear Cecile and Maarten,
Thank you both for your explanations. I have read the lesson you refer to several times, as well as the relevant links, (and done the kwizes), but I still get a little confused with this issue. I plan to review this subject regularly, as I have found by doing so I eventually achieve an understanding of subjects that at first are not clear to me. I am wondering if maybe the lesson could be expanded someway to include more exercise questions or if it could be broken up into several separate lessons? Perhaps "an/annee" could have its own lesson?
Merci beaucoup !
I hear a different word before the word belle in the last sentence. The text states the word as aussi. I hear either plus or tout. Do you agree?
Hello, in the first example mentioned
"I saw magnificent places"
The answer in french is "J'ai vu des endroits magnifiques."
Why is it "des" here instead of d'endroits ??
In the sentence; J'avais oublié de finir mes devoirs; why the de?
Why does visite sometimes have an acute accent on the end, other times it doesn't?
la fin de la deuxième phrase - les termes que le Chancelier allemand Adolf Hitler LUI imposerait.
"LUI" parce que les termes seraient imposés au maréchal Pétain. ou
"Y" parce que les termes seraient imposés à la France. (...la France accepterait les termes que le Chancelier allemand Adolf Hitler y imposerait.)
In Conte de fées (Passé Composé vs Imparfait) we're given the clue so his daughter had to take care of the garden and the animals. with 'devait' given as the correct answer and not 'a dû'. Why is that the case, when in this class it seems to be the opposite way around? It follows the context of her father rarely leaving his bed, and is followed by describing something she would also do once a month. So it seems unlikely to fit the 'we don't know if she fulfilled that obligation' case for using devait.
