if ‘avoir envie de’ can be used as an alternative to ‘avoir besoin de’ for saying ‘needs to go to the bathroom’, why can’t it also be used for ‘needs to take a day off’? Isn’t it all down to context in both cases?
I am looking at this sentence - 'la procédure d'adoption s'est avérée encore plus éprouvante que nous l'avions envisagé' - and wondering why 'envisagé' doesn't agree with the 'l' that comes before it - assuming that pronoun is feminine because it refers back to 'la procédure'...?
does it mean "but it didn't depend on my fabulous boyfriend?" it just sounds a little weird...
Why we use "va" instead of "vas"? I thought it was "vas" since they communicate with "Tu".
I read in a French magazine:
La nécropole de Chellah, l'un des plus anciens sites du pays.
I would translate this as 'One of the most ancient sites of the country.
But 'ancien' before the noun means 'former', which would not make sense. Has the addition of 'plus' caused a change in the structure ? So confusing !
Bonjour,
I found this sentence on wordreference when I checked the word profondeur:
Ce gouffre a trente mètres de profondeur.
Is it correct??
Merci
It might be grammatically correct but it’s kinda creepy! Kwiziq has to cater for all tastes I suppose.
Under “nous avons pu réinvestir les dons qui nous étaient parvenus”, the “voix passive” lesson is listed beneath it, and not the “plus que parfait” lesson.
But isn’t it that case that this line is an example of plus que parfait, and not of voix passive?
This may seem like splitting hairs, but I find the listed lessons very useful even just from their titles, to guide my understanding of the grammar.
