This appeared in my test. The question I have is not around the the subject pronoun, but about "ont de jolies poupées". Is this a rule regarding "avoir de"? So whatever object follows it, whether it's singular or plural you always use "de"?
In the translation of, "I've always been fascinated by French high fashion, of which Yves Saint-Laurent is one of the most iconic figures.", do we use l'une instead of l'un because of the agreement with the 'la figure' ?
Could "bivouaquer" be used to say set up camp?
In this exercise, we could use faire face à qqch and affronter to express face something, and what about envisager?
Could we use this verb to express the same meaning?
Thank you.
English sentence - one of Guadeloupe's most beautiful beaches with its postcard white sand and coconut trees.
Kwiziq answer - l'une des plus belles plages de Guadeloupe avec son sable blanc et ses cocotiers de carte postale.
Why is ‘de carte postale’ used with cocoiters (coconut trees) and not sable (sand)? The English sentence uses postcard white sand, not post card coconut trees
Hi I don't understand why "Tous les enfants partent mais aucun ne prend le train" is correct but
:Tous les enfants partent mais aucun d’entre eux ne prend le train" is not.
THE LESSON SAYS: We can also express none of them using aucun d'entre eux ne ... / aucune d'entre elles ne ..., I understand "aucun d’entre eux/elles" is used with people and les enfants are people. Thanks.
Here it is
‚c‘est M.Dupont qui était responsable…‘
Is this an expression that always uses the present tense followed by the imperfect? Could you use imperfect and imperfect in this example ……c‘était M. Dupont qui était…..
Thank you
are both ok?
....since it' not implied "brand new"
Can the verb 'faufiler' be used in this context?
