Des boules Quiès- is that a brand name?Great lesson, thanks.
On ________ passés par là ? Did we pass this way?
the answer is On siesta passes par la? Why isn't it On est passé par là?
The plural passes seems wrong to me.
Hi,
I made several errors with my phrasing choices and was wondering if any of the following could have been correct:
1. Shouldn't the prompt for " Et tu as trouvé ça difficile" be "and did you find that difficult?" - since it's referring to the reading of a book in french, not the book itself? Wouldn't the translation of "did you find it [the book] difficult? " be "Et tu l'as trouvé difficile?"2. It was quite difficult and daunting at times - Could you use bien instead of plutôt/assez to mean quite?
3. Could you said "je compte desormais lire un livre en français plusieurs fois par an."?
Thanks!
"Je n'ai pas de X."
Should "X" be in the singular form or in the plural? Does it depend on which form it was in in the question?
eg. "Avez-vous une voiture ?" -> "Je n'ai pas de voiture." but "Avez-vous des chaussures ?" -> "Je n'ai pas de chaussures." ?
Regarding the question ?How could you say "You need a new bike." ??
I think "devoir" would be acceptable as I perceived the possibility the person used the bike as a necessary form of transportation and the bike was either to broken to repair or was used for work. In that case they would really need to replace the bike making devoir acceptable.
Or maybe I'm just reading too much into the questionÉ
Is there any list of nouns before which indefinite articles don't change in negative form?
I thought if vouloir was used as negative phrase, you didn't use the subjonctif tense...am I wrong?
