This link tells me that the spelling for le future simple conjugation of appeler is single “l”. Please have a look. Merci! https://french.kwiziq.com/revision/grammar/verbs/appeler
One of the hardest ones yet! It showed me that I am clearly not ready for a French aerobics class yet, so at least there's that, haha!
Je pense que cette conversation aurait été plus interessante et utile si une des personnes avait présenté la position du gouvernement d’en manière cool et rationale. On s’attend à cela au niveau C1. Pour moi au Canada, je n’ai pas fait mon retraite jusqu’au âge 66, et j’ai trouvé quitter mon travail plutôt dur parce que mon salaire à temps plein c’est bien, et le travail est un forme de vie sociale. En général, la vie ne devient pas moins cher. Est-ce qu’il possible que les autres pays développés aient un âge de la retraite plus élevé que France pour une raison ?
Bonjour,
We know that indefinite articles "un/une/des" become "de" in negative form with the exception of verb être and verbs of states. But, does this rule also apply to the negative of interrogative sentence?
For example:
Il mange une pomme. -> Il ne mange pas de pomme.
Is the following also true?
Est-ce qu'il mange une pomme ? -> Est-ce qu'il ne mange pas de pomme ? and
Mange-t-il une pomme ? -> Ne mange-t-il pas de pomme ?
I didn't find any reference about negative interrogative and indefinite articles so have to ask to clear my doubt. Also, please confirm the case with negative interrogative and partitive articles.
merci beaucoup.
I don't understand why "Pour être riche, il faut avoir beaucoup d'argent" is wrong? Any ideas, please.
Hi, I think there are too many hints in many of these exercises (including this one). Specifically, the type of hint that tells you what word or words to use. These prevent you from making your own attempt. Personally, I’d remove these.
At the beginning of the second sentence the word "BASTIEN" is in the text, but it is not in the audio. All of the other sentences have the characters' name in both the text & the audio.
- Can I use "chez la teinturerie" instead of "au pressing"?
- Can I use "ce n'est pas grand-chose" instead of "ce n'est pas grave"?
- Can I use "de nouveau" instead of "encore"? Please walk me through this.
- Can I use "de secours" instead of "en réserve or de côté"?
In this lesson the note about the conversational past states that in these cases, the en will be before or after être: formally, it should be before, but in practice, it often ends up after.
Following this advice I put "Nous en nous sommes allés après le dessert.". This was flagged as incorrect, and "Nous nous en sommes allés après le dessert." as being correct.
This seems inconsistent with the note. I see there have been other questions about this topic. To me, "nous en nous sommes" flows off the tongue better than "nous nous en sommes".
