Hi, this struck me as odd: "vous devriez peut-être considérer que la relation n'est pas n'est pas censée durer" - why not just "n'est pas censée durer"? Why the repetition?
"À l'avenir, je devrai t'écouter davantage."
In the future, I'll have to listen to you more.
Are there any rules around when to use davantage vs plus, or are they interchangeable? Could I have used:
"À l'avenir, je devrai t'écouter plus." ?
Thanks
I kept getting corrected for using a capital letter after the "-" at the start of a line of dialogue. But it was frustratingly inconsistent—later I would get corrected for not using one. And the final text is displayed with capital letters in all cases. What's going on/what's the rule?
^ for this sentence, the speaker in the recording is a female voice. Wouldn't it be nouvelle if a woman is speaking?
I am very confused:
Ex: After YOU visited the city, YOU… ( same subject). Why is it translated by: « après que vous avez visité la ville, vous… instead of « après avoir visité la ville, vous… ». Merci de me répondre.
Currently, I am doing a part time job.
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".
il raconte une histoire à mon ami- il lui en raconte (or it should be il la lui raconte"?) if it's 2d option, could you please explain why? thank you!
