Peut-on dire : qu'est-ce qui est dans la boîte ? Ou faut-il dire qu'y a-t-il dans la boîte ?
Two phrases:
Je pense au match de football de la semaine prochaine.
Je pense à mon mariage le mois prochain.
Question: why preposition "de" is in front of "la semaine", but it is not in front of "le mois"?
Please could you explain why prochain is placed in front of 'concert', when it is normally placed after nouns?
I don’t think the "grand" in the final sentence sounded quite right, more like gros. It was fine in the recording of the whole extract but not in the individual exercise. Or is it my ears?! (Une nouvelle que nous avions accueillie avec grand soulagement !)
Are the primary and secondary conjugations dans le présent common to one French-speaking country or another or are they newer/older versions?
... car le bureau de poste local n'offrait plus ce service.
In this section of the sentence the 'S' at the end of 'pluS' is pronounced. This seems at odds with the lesson 'Ne ... plus = no more/no longer' which states: -
Note that when plus has a negative meaning (no more), you don't pronounce the final 's', except when you do the liaison with a vowel following ('z' sound).
... in the exercise plus is followed by 'ce' and 'ce' does not start with a vowel and as such should not be pronounced?
Hi where can get some exercises on this. Also is there a lesson on it? I searched but didn't find any
Hello, at the question On a rendez-vous à ______ (We're meeting at six PM.)
I wrote six heures de l'après-midi instead of the correct answer dix-huit heures. Why my answer is wrong?
Thanks
Why is it sur ordre and not sure l'ordre de Napoléon
J’ai traduit le mot, ’squint’, par ’loucher’ au lieu de ’plisser les yeux’. Le dictionnaire cite tous les deux comme acceptable, mais l’exercice accepte seulement le deuxième. Pourquoi ?
