The phrase in English was "I will introduce her to Amelie" (sorry I don't have accents). The translation given is je lui presenterai Amelie which I take to mean "I will introduce Amelie to her". Should it not be "je la presenterai a Amelie"?
My immediate instinct was to use "Attention ! Le mélange ne devrait pas trop chaud," but it was marked incorrect. In this particular context, is there a hard reason why it is better to use "Le mélange ne doit pas être trop chaud" instead?
I am confused about when I can use duquel ,delaquelle etc instead of dont
I have a question about the number one in front of larger numbers. Is One hundred million written ‘un cent milliards’, ‘une cent milliards’ or ‘cent milliards’
I would have thought (and did!) that it should be "ces héros ont souffert de la discrimination" rather than "ces héros ont souffert de discrimination"; in the same way that "ces héros ont subi de la discrimination" was noted as a correct answer.
Is there something specific to "souffrir de" that causes the article to be dropped?
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
Pourquoi est la langue française si confusant?
Just querying why it's leurs and not leur here. In a previous dictée I was told that it would only be leurs plural if each of the parties had several of the thing being talked about. Well surely, they each only posessed one "look" which crossed with the other's one "look", so why not "leur"?
Why can’t it just be où viens tu?
