I've a feeling I've been here before in another dictée ! I thought that it was the number (singular)[of vowels] that was present. I can't get my head round why "présentes" agrees with "de voyelles". If "de voyelles" weren't there, it would read, "..le nombre présent au tirage." "The number" is still something singular, however many things it might be encompassing, surely ?

What am I missing here?

Pendant / Durant without a defined start and end time?

My Kwiz question was "How could you say "Gregory is going away for the holidays." ?

and the answers included pendant, durant and pour. Is "the holidays" considered to be a clearly defined start and end time?

End of the sentence

Salut

If pas encore cannot be used at the end of a sentence then why can I say: On ne travaille pas encore. As in the example given in the lesson?

Merci en avance

À partir de et dès

Est-ce qu'on utilise "À partir du premier jour des vacances..." au lieu de "Dès le premier jour des vacances..." dans ce contexte ? Si non, pourquoi ?

Ne...aucun/aucune is used with Countable or Uncountable Nouns or Both?

Is the negation Ne...aucun/aucune always used with countable nouns?? '(Je n'ai aucune idée.') I am getting confused because of this post here -

https://french.kwiziq.com/questions/view/could-you-also-use-aucun

In this post, Chris mentions that....aucun refers to countable objects, then how can we say - Nous n’y voyons aucun mal. [We don’t see any harm in it.]

Here the noun mal is not countable.

Please clarify.

Is it un or l’ in front of emballage?

It sounds like he’s saying ‘ J’ai ouvert un emballage’, not ‘J’ai ouvert l’emballage’.

"Pour un lapin votre chat sera vendu" Is this a joke - suggesting the cat will be passed off as rabbit meat?
