French language Q&A Forum

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.

Hi Kwiziq

I utilise many different resources to learn French (including Kwiziq) and at least 2 translator apps - Reverso and French English Translator which check my French words and grammar to verify my learning, before I speak, write or read.  However, I often find these 2 apps give me different answers for the same phrases.    In this particular Kwizik test, I became frustrated because some of my answers were marked incorrect, despite my research before taking the test.  

Do you have any suggestions on which translator is the most reliable and one that Kwizik recommends?   I am a Premium Kwizik member and enjoy your model of teaching, however, I need to find a reliable translator.

Thank you.

Regards Jo

In the question "Nous ________ les cheveux.” (We brushed our hair) (HINT: Conjugate "se brosser" (to brush) in the compound past (Passé Composé)), why is “nous sommes brossé” preferred over “nous sommes brossés”?

I think that “we” is plural, so the correct response should be “brossés” with the “s”.

Google Translate uses the simpler a 11 heures instead of d'ici 11 heures to translate "by 11". Are both acceptable? Is the one used in the lesson preferable? Which is most commonly used?

When combining conjugations like ne jamais and ne nulle part, do we keep the nulle part rule of going at the end of the clause?

Example:
Je n'ai jamais nulle part allé
Ou

Je n'ai jamais allé nulle part

I never went anywhere

Why "populaire animateur de...", and not "animateur populaire de..." ?

La fleur sent bon.

Which is the correct comparison:

Mais cette fleur sent meilleure.

Mais cette fleur sent mieux.

This sentence ending with “où” to me sounds unfinished. Is this considered informal speech? I feel like “où” is serving as a conjunction here… Is this a fixed phrase? Like the rest of the sentence is implied or used to be stated and now it dropped? For example, something like “…au cas où (il me faudrait)”

Is Avoir and Être, more simple than Ser and Estar in spanish?
