French language Q&A Forum

It would be useful to have a quiz in order to practise all the places and buildings in a town. This would help us to consolidate what is actually quite a long list, but very useful vocabulary when one is visiting France.

Could 'les infos' be substituted by ' l'actualité ' or ' nouvelle ' Thanks

Tous les jours, je fais des efforts pour aider la planète. Par example, quand je vais au supermarché, j'apporte mon sac en toile et j'évite les emballages de plastique. Et si j'achète un café à emporter, j'utilise ma tasse réutilisable. À la maison, je ne gaspille pas l'eau et he recycle mes déchets. Quand je ne peux pas faire de vélo, je prends les transports en commun ou je fais du covoiturage. 

Why is this not in Imparfait? It's a description and the family, presumably, continues to love dogs. 

Hello, why is it:

Mon village favori ?

and

Mon village préféré?

Its not spoken about the past? And if, why "favori"?

Why quitter is correct answer, but not sortir ?

I found an example in the lesson where sortir is used to describe a personne leaving work at 19h

I must admit I often find the 'short lessons' on here a little confusing because of the coloured lines. This one is particularly bad. I cannot see if the text with green lines is supposed to relate to the text with orange lines above it or below it. Essentially, why are the coloured lines there? They only confuse. Marking explanations with one colour and examples with another is pointless; we can see what is what. What we cannot see is what pertains to what. It would be fine if you gave some examples with red lines then an explanation also with a red line, so we know it refers to the 'red lined' examples. Then, further examples with a different colour together with an explanation with the same colour. This way we know what refers to what.

Just wanted to check if this is a mistake. I found this on Duolingo.

Nous ne nous sommes plus jamais parlé.

Why is the verb parlé not agreed with the reflexive pronoun?

Merci très beaucoup.

Hey,

I am. not sure if its ok to post this here. But I noticed that in the lesson on reflexive pronouns.. it says -en nous endoromons, nous (for present participle)

Shouldn't it be -En nous endormant, nous..... What am I missing?
