Following on from Frank's question, in the passage:
"...j'ai noté toutes ces bonnes idées",
how does one know if it's those (ces) or your (ses) good ideas ?
Hello everyone,
I was just wondering if you could give me some tips to use this website effectively, as I can't figure out how to remember the information. The topic tests aren't enough, so I was thinking to make flashcards, but that sounds straining.
I'm doing IB and I need some tips - anything helps.
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.
Bonjour, should "Tous les parents la redoute" read "Tous les parents la redoutent" ? Merci, Matthew.
I found that the sound quality on this recording was really terrible, there's an echo that made it really difficult to make out what the speaker was saying, so I abandoned it.
You define L'imparfait as being about things that happened repeatedly in the past or past habits. Yet "You had eaten cereal this morning" is neither a repeated action nor a past habits, yet is expressed in L'imparfait... "tu avais mangé des céréales ce matin"? Sounds more like your definition of le passé composé - a single event in a defined timeframe. I get that the grammar is correct. What I'm questioning is your definitions.
The lesson that drew me here said the correct answer was in the imparfait. Ils ne habitaient plus ici but the examples in the lesson do not transition from the present to the imparfait. What makes the difference?
How would you say "someone hadn't lived there since [insert year]"
"this classic French dessert" = "ce dessert classique français" and "the melted lemon butter" =" le beurre fondu à citron" How do I know which adjective goes first?
