French language Q&A Forum

In one of the tests the answer included « choose one or the other. » We would normally say « Choose one or other (of them). » ‘The one’ or ‘the other’, sounds clunky even if grammatical.  :)

I have seen the phrase avoir à a couple times, and I was wondering how it differs from il faut and devoir - is it a less formal version of both of them, a more informal iteration of only one, or is it a completely different idea that it expresses

Hello I have difficulty understanding this phrase from a podcast. Does it mean it changed a week ago?

 Bonjour Kwiziq . J'aime lire les textes depuis les website differents et cette texte aide moi dans francais beacoup . Cette topic  est beaucoup interresant . il y a des  nouvelle mots j'aime. La picture matcher chaque person  personalite. J'adore cette texte beacoup.  I really love reading texts from different websits and this website helped my french alot. The topic is very interesting. There are new words I loved . The picture matched each person's personality . I absouletly loved this text!

The very first example given of when to use "c'est" is:

"C'est une jolie robe."

This clearly refers to a specific dress.

But then we are told that the answer to "Tu aimes mon pull?"  should be "Oui, il est très beau."

Why is the rule for a specifc dress different than the rule for a specific sweater? Is it that "il/elle est" should be used when answering a question about a specific thing but that "c'est" can be used otherwise? 

I had this example. Why "Et toi, qui est-ce qu' as-tu rencontré?" is wrong? Can't we use qui est-ce que here?

Hi there,

can anybody help with why que appears in the following sentence, please? "Tu dormiras dans le meme hotel que la derniere fois".  The translation I have is "will you sleep in the same hotel as last time".  I've not come across que as a translation for 'as' before.

Thanks in advance.

Kieran.
