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.

so you really just add an -e to the end of a adjective to make it feminine? is there any exceptions?

Where is the Eu coming from please?

For in countries/cities, I always thought it was either "à" (usually for cities, except for a small number of cases e.g. au Canada, au Japon), and "en" for countries.

E.g. J'habite à Melbourne.

J'habite en Australie.

However the above example says j'habite DANS le Yorkshire... how can you live INSIDE a place?

Could someone please explain what "aidée" is agreeing with here? Why is it feminine?

comme j'aime les chats, j'ai particulièrement apprécié cet exercice. au moment où j'écris, mon chat dort au soleil sur son lit, où elle restera jusqu'à ce qu'elle ait faim ou qu'elle veuille être caressée :)

"Je veux rien" marked as incorrect on the test.

I understand it's not the strictly proper, dictionary-perfect way to say that, but it's valid and there was no indication in the way the question was phrased that it was specifically the ne construction I was expected to use -- and nothing else.

Why isn't nouvelle année not in caps? 

Hello, why is it:

Mon village favori ?

and

Mon village préféré?

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