Est-ce que on peut aussi mettre ce adjectif «délicieux» devant «gratin (n.)» parce que «délicieux» est un adjectif utilisé fréquemment dans la vie quotidienne?
D'accord:
"You will NOT use le when talking about weekdays in a specific context (on Monday):
Mercredi, tu iras à l'école.On Wednesday, you will go to school."
UNLESS "when giving a whole date (day/number/month/[year]), such as
Le mardi 5 mars, j'ai rencontré Lola.On Tuesday the 5th of March, I met Lola.
Par example on the test : Le mardi 6 janvier, j'étais malade.On Tuesday the 6th of January, I was sick.
HOWEVER< If the question was "On Tuesday I was sick" (without the whole date), it would be "Mardi, j'étais malade."
Is that correct?? Thanks
In the context of this lesson is rien the negative version of quelque chose and personne the negative version of quelqu’un (ie nothing and no one) ?
Why is it "...qu'il ne pleuve." as opposed to "qu'il pleuve."?Mathilde put the car away before it rained.
I was wondering why the use of indefinite articles with descriptive nouns was no longer in use. For example, I learned to say "Je suis une chanteuse." But, a textbook I am using in my class simply says "Je suis chanteuse." First, why is the un or une no longer included and second, is it grammatically correct to say something like "Je suis fille." or "Il est homme."? Much appreciated for any help. Rules have changed since I was a student.
In an exercise - Pauline s'habille de plus en plus élégamment.
Why is the 2nd "s" not pronounced as a "z" - given that the word following starts with an é ?
I have been studying the rules and just did a quiz on this.
In Conte de fées (Passé Composé vs Imparfait) we're given the clue so his daughter had to take care of the garden and the animals. with 'devait' given as the correct answer and not 'a dû'. Why is that the case, when in this class it seems to be the opposite way around? It follows the context of her father rarely leaving his bed, and is followed by describing something she would also do once a month. So it seems unlikely to fit the 'we don't know if she fulfilled that obligation' case for using devait.
Salut
On dit " parlez-leur" Pourquoi pas "appellez-les" ?
