Dan la négation, par exemple: je n’aime pas d’escargots. De is under 0 number, why escargots is using plural? Affirmative answer: j’aime des escargots have quantities therefore is understandable to use pluriel.
En place de: Il ne faut pas que nous mangions avec nos doigts, puisqu'on dire: I faut que nous ne mangions pas avec nos doigts?
Why is there no de with this sentence? J'espère ne pas faire d'erreurs.
I hope not to make a mistake.Hello All.
I was reviewing pronouns using this page:
https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/indirect-objects-2/
It mentions using the adverbial pronoun "y" and then gives an example:
Il y pense. He’s thinking about her.I thought that "y" could only be used to reference an inanimate object, not a person.
Are there special cases? What am I missing here?
Thank You in advance.
Bob
To second what Syliva said three years ago, statements like "La vie, c'est dure" should be counted as correct on a quiz, not just "La vie est dure."
Is this tense more commonly used in French than in English? I hardly ever speak like this in English and I find it to be a strange tense to learn since it doesn't seem likely that we learners will be reminiscing in French. That seems to be it's only use.
(Histoire de ma vie) I have the desire to write a novel or I have no more the desire to write a novel. What means : se passer qchose?
Not a question, but sounds like a great day I'd like to do merci beaucoup :)
