French language Q&A Forum

Selon Reverso, les textes français utilisent les deux. Mais est-ce que tous les deux sont corrects ?

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

in french how do you say they/them pronouns without it being pluralized? I know iel for they but i’m having trouble finding a singular them

My head is whirling after studying this long article, especially using the adverbs mieux / pire for making a general statement with être eg Ta télé est bien mais la mienne est mieux.

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but surely in English you use the adjectival form here? You don’t say "yours is well …mine is better" but "yours is good…mine is better".

 I think there is scope to highlight this more fully. [Edit: and indeed the Lawless article on Bien vs Bon that Chris referred to 4 years ago, actually says that bien is an adjective when used with state-of-being verbs]

There was an earlier quiz where "something fitted someone" and the answer was APADTE Á. I also remember that VA Á was not one of the options. When is 'adapte á" appropriate?

I enjoyed listening to this voice. I had not heard it before, and it's nice to have a new and different voice to listen to. It's good practice to hear various people speak. I also appreciate the intonation that he uses, especially in the phrase..."et avec le temps, notre relation a changé."

It reminds me of the intonations that I used to hear and learned to use when living in France many years ago. I was wondering if the spoken word has possibly changed over time, (maybe due to the advent of social media?), as I don't hear these patterns very often anymore, when using this site or watching french movies on Netflix.

Does envoyer a (with accent) take lui or leur instead of le, la or les? Thank you!!

Questions including sentenses like "This bedroom is grey. - Yes, it's grey here."  make absolutley no sense to me.

What is "Yes, it's grey here" referring to? The weather, or a completely different bedroom perhaps. 

As I have no idea, I have to quess and and so keep getting the answer wrong.

I would be grateful if you could tell me what the question means by using different words.

Qu'est-ce que c'est [chose]?, Qu'est-ce que c'est que + [something] , Qu'est-ce que + [chose] all mean the same thing and they have the same level of formality, right? Am I understanding this correctly?

Hi Team,

Is there any explanation why we say "poche avant" and not "poche devant" in this text ?

Thanks,
