Just an F.Y.I.:
The exercise is missing the audio, "...et vous prenez la rue en face." during the dictation. I clicked the button several times, but there was no sound.
Merci
je ferai gagner du temps à tout le monde - What's the expression here? Because I don't understand why "À" is used here?
Just a question concerning the reference to Finir as the Regular 2nd group of -ir verbs; and Partir as Irregular 3rd group of -ir verbs.
Is there an explanation somewhere of the groups of verbs that are being referred to here? What is the Regular 1st group -ir verbs, etc.?
Hello! I was wondering how to translate an inversion from English into French. For example, the English 'I left early, so bad was the party'. Could you use an inversion and say 'Je suis parti tôt, si mauvaise était la fête'? Or something more like 'Je suis parti tôt, tant la fête était mauvaise'.
Thank you very much
Why is "j'ai regardé dans le frigo" not accepted ?
Pont de l'Alma with a capital 'P' but pont des Invalides and pont Alexandre III with lower case 'p'. Is that correct?
Why is the music so loud? it's offputting!
Why is this incorrect? Il est aussi riche qu'ils
"J'en ai vu une autre hier qui avait un grenier et un sous-sol, ce qui serait parfait..." I thought of this as BOTH attic and basement being useful for storage and used third person plural, "seraient." Why wasn't this correct?
I got a quiz question from the "a besoin de" lesson:
Cette année, Michaël ________ perdre du poids.
I was using "doit" here, but the correct was "a besoin de"
I couldn't find a full explanation why the second one is correct but the first one not.
Does the meaning change in this case (I could imagine that doit would be closer linked to a real need, e.g from a medical perspective, while besoin would be more linked to his wish to lose weight, but no idea if that's the case).
