"He's thinking of his holidays. He's thinking of it."
Can I suggest that "He's thinking of his holidays. He's thinking of them." would be better?
Bonjour. Je voudrais savoir pourquoi, spécialmente dans le journaux, de temps en temps il y a en la troisieme personne singuliere ce construction (existe-t-il, a-t-il...).
Why does aimer mean love instead of like in this sentence:
Elle aime sa nouvelle veste.She loves her new jacket.Doesn't aimer mean to like when used with things/objects? Somewhat confused.“Sa mère et moi l'avons seulement assistée avec les démarches administratives.”. Hi, ”sa mère” (mother is female) “et moi” (“moi” is the father, who is male) “avons assistée” (first-person plural passé composé). We have a mixture of male and female forming the “we”, so should the past participle be “assisté” and not “assistée”? Thanks.
Hello, I am wondering why to use "c´est" instead of "elle est" to translate "she is an angel". Doesn't "c´est" mean "it is", used to describe an object? Can you use "c´est" about a person and why is it better than simply saying "elle est"?
I got the question Mathilde a rentré la voiture avant qu'il ne pleuve. wrong because I chose "Mathilde returned the car..." as the "correct" answer was "Mathilde put away the car..." But in English, saying you put away a car sounds like you put a small object away. Since a car is so big, you would return it to its proper destination, which is why I chose this answer. I feel that both these answers could technically be correct.

I think the more I listen to French, the worse I get...
I'm so depressed!
