On the introductory page of the dictée "Rendez-vous pour le contrôle technique", the word is spelled 'defectueux'. But in the body of the exercise, in section four where it appears, it is spelled 'défecteux'.
I would appreciate a lesson on the verbs used when expressing the desire to do something or looking forward to doing something.
Also, a lesson on the expressions used to mean "picking someone up" would be appreciated.
Merci.
I selected nationality with Capital letter, but it says I selected lower case
The example cited in the page of instruction regarding ''Expressing intervals of dates and times in French = from ... to' is 'The festival lasts from the 24th of July to the 5th of August'/'Le festival dure du 24 juillet au 5 août'.
I am therefore puzzled by the answer to the fill-in the-blank question 'Le festival dure ________ mai/The festival lasts from the third to the tenth of May'. My answer was 'du troisième au dixième', while the answer provided as a correction was 'du trois au dix'
Perhaps I'm being stupid, but my answer seems to follow the example better than the correction. Where is my error?
Sorry if I’m being thick, but could someone please explain what the following mean: than"]"> as"]"> and que"]"> at the head of each grammar explanation in the sidebar of the lesson?
Why doesn’t the past participle take an extra ‘s’ with ‘nous’. Isn’t there more than one person, like ‘ils’?
In answer to Stephen's question:
Aurelie wanted to write a little poem for us to make it more fun and enjoyable.
"Baluchon" rhymes with "regions".
I learned a new word: "Baluchon". It is a bit old-fashioned and I can picture a hobo with his "baluchon" over his shoulder.
This lesson was also a nice review of: "galettes" and "beffroi".
Merci !
What is the rule for capitalisation here? The Cirque in the first line is capitalised but in the last line is marked incorrect when capitalised.
Hi when I create a notebook I'm asked if I want it to be made public or not. Where can I find these public notebooks?
