Can one say 'avec qui' in this case also?
Why is the phrase "notre prof de science nous demandait de préparer ..." in imparfait not passé composé? Since the requests occurred at specific points in time I thought it would be passé composé. Is it because the requests were repeated each year?
Are these sentences incorrect [see: French is Fun Book 1 / 2020)]? (1) Le père de Roger est un artiste. (2) La mère de Marie est une championne de karate.
My biggest mistakes at this simple point in A1 are because I don't know the word as opposed to missing the grammar rules (parce que, par, oeuvres, etc.). When I make mistakes the lessons recommended are almost always about the grammar -- are there lessons or suggestions for picking up more vocabulary? (although I'm suspecting that just doing exercises is the best way to get exposed to more words :-) )
Is me a direct object here. I cannot find a definition for 'se traverser'
Just to confuse things some more, there are several possible alternative English translations in addition to the one given here:
Je fais le lit après que tu t'es levé.I'm making the bed after you've got [US: gotten] up.
The French can also be translated as:I'll make the bed after you get up.I'll make the bed after you've gotten up.I'll make the bed after you're up.
In spoken French, do Conditionnel Passé and Le Futur Antérieur sound noticeable different? It seems like it would be confusing.
why is it 'elle faisait son jogging' and not 'elle faisait DU jogging' ?
Bonjour,
Selon la leçon , IL+pronom+faut+nom. Pourquoi y-a-t-il "de" dans: Il lui faut de l'aide. Je ne comprends pas. SVP, l'expliquez- moi! Merci d'avance.
