I noticed that an example given above " Elles ne l'ont fait expres" means They didnt do it on purpose. Im wondering why it isnt Elles n'en ont pas fait expres. Doesn't en replace phrases after de?
I listened to this sentence loads of times trying to see if there was any hint of an ellision ( "je serai z-enfin" ). There was not, and thus I concluded that it must have been "serai" not "serais". Is no ellision used after "serais" ?
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.
J'ai bien compris l'usage de "tout ce qui", mais je pensais que l'on ne pouvait "visiter" que des lieux, pas des personnes.
Does the phrase …..(aller) mieux que…” introduce the subjunctive mood?
Why can’t i say ‘la circulation me fait peur?’
Not really related to the lesson at hand, but in the example, isn’t besoin supposed to be followed by de?
Les chaussures dont tu as besoin sont dans le placard
I hope it’s OK to pose a vocabulary question - at first I took this to mean the dog has taken the person’s food, but today I came across a module in Duolingo (apologies...) translating "croquettes" as "kibble", ie dog food. Is that the intended meaning?
this dictée made me smile. It's heartening to know that certain domestic issues are universal! :)
There should have been included in the vocabulary list additional words including
the Halloween characters. These are words that are not part of daily speech.
