Hi, my kwizbot it is telling my that in this example,”Cette maison est bien. - Oui, elle est ________ l'autre.”
the correct answe is “mieux.” Why? Doesn’t mieux modify a verb? Here were modifying a noun (maison), so it should be “meilleur” by all logic, so why is the correct answer “mieux”?
I believe the English should say ‘Tomorrow Federer will lose to Roland Garros’.
The end of the passage states, "d'ici trois jours ouvrables" or "dans", but the English phrase to translate is "within" so should en not be used instead of dans? En being within and dans being similar to after ex number of days.
in this example, two questions:
Ce sont les meilleures vacances qu'elle ait passées!
1. why "ce" instead of "ces", if vacances is plural?
2. why pasées instead of passée, if the noun is singular and avoir doesn't match in number?
Hello, I'm aware of the rules for this case, but the translation was what stopped me from writing this. "Devrais" generally means "should", but that translation doesn't work here. Would this be an exception, then? Thank you.
Why is 'Daphné apprend-elle le français' correct while 'Daphné apprend-t-elle le français' is marked wrong. All the examples in the lesson add 't' when the verb does'nt elide.
In example
Why venions? Subjunctive?
My comment is similar to Elizabeth's, so I hope your response will also be similar.
My answer to...
À ce moment-là, les étoiles ________ dans le ciel.
was "sont apparus". This is wrong because I didn't know that étoiles is feminine. But the only correction given was "ont apparu".
The last sentence is Elle n'en croira pas ses yeux! Why is "en" used in this context?
Since other French speaking countries use words like septante,octante and nonante it would be nice to mention them in the article. I get that you don't want to confuse beginners but acknowledging their existence for those that might have an interest into learning those alternative words might have been neat.
Not really a question and more like a suggestion.
