hi,

I was wondering what is the easiest way to know when something is in the 12 hour clock or when something is in the 24 hour clock? This seems to be my most problem in this section of understanding.

thanks

What is the function of the word “ce” in this phrase: Dans le milieu professionnel, et ce dans presque tous les secteurs d’activité

In “en espérant que je ne me rende pas compte de son absence.”

We have “rendre” in the subjunctive as “rende”. This has been triggered by “espérer que”. But I thought that an affirmative use of “espérer que” would use the Indicative as opposed to the Subjunctive. I don’t know what additional implication the use of the gerund has though…

I love these translations although they are very humbling. 

Is there a simple explanation for why "de" is needed in "Tu as de la chance" but not in "La voiture à la droite a la priorité?  Merci!

In: “And if you need help, I will be happy to help you.” = “Et s'il te faut de l'aide, je serai heureuse de t'aider” I’m hearing “serai ‘z’ heureuse” as if the text were in fact “serais heureuse”. Are my ears deceiving me?

Can one say 'avec qui' in this case also?

What are the positives and negatives of moving to the countryside in French

Why was the hint given as "Le présent" with respect to "vous prenez" and the answer given was in the future tense "Vous prendrez" 

Je n'ai pas bien compris......

I just learned that etre exciter means being sexually aroused and not excited. Perhaps we can clarify. Les filles étaient tout excitées de voir le feu d'artifice.

Aujourd'hui je récolte beaucoup de citrouilles de me jardins.  Presque trente en tout.  Nous avons eu un peu de gel mais demains j'espère récolter le reste du maïs doux pour les geler.  Je suis en accord.  J'adore l'automne!!
