Why is the sentence in passé composé rather than in imparfait? The act of saving has to happen over a period of time. It is not a one-time action.
can we form a question using subjunctive like est-ce qu'il faut que je prenne ce cours?
A peu explication pour qoui ne remplace pas on au nous sommes
I spent the day chatting. J’ai passer la journée à bavarder/discuter. Please will you explain the use of à in this sentence. Why is it needed?
Bonjour, in the first example given,
J'habite à Paris depuis cinq ans, et ça me plaît toujours !
Translation: I've lived in Paris for five years, and I still love it!
Shouldn't it be "encore", since it means "still"?
Why do we not capitalize the names of places? Are there any instances where we will capitalize a letter?
J'aimerais parler plusieurs de langues et je voudrais voyager dans le monde, aussi, si j'avais d'argent.
Hi everyone,
I would be interested to hear if encore could have been used instead of "de nouveau" in this text:
tout est net de nouveau ! (referring to eyesight: everything is clear again).
If anyone has any opinion as to why "de nouveau" is a better choice than encore in this context, or any other , I would be interested.
I have a suspicion that "de nouveau" means "once more" and "encore" means "again".
Am I correct ?
thanks
Paul
