Hello,
Would you kindly explain the "en ferait rougir plus d'un"? I am not sure what the speaker is saying about Damien. Is she implying that Damien has a way on making someone blush (with embarrassment perhaps)?
Merci!
Hi, could you explain the purpose of the word “à” in the following French lines please?
“if he lost a game that they were playing together.”
“s'il perdait à un jeu auquel ils étaient en train de jouer ensemble.”
“s'il perdait à un jeu auquel ils jouaient ensemble.”
Is it not acceptable here to say 'Cherchez-vous'?
The quiz asked me to find correctly placed adjectives and I thought colors are supposed to go after the noun? Unless there is a exception here i missed.
What is the difference between devoir in Le Conditionnel Passé and L'imparfait?
For example: Where do these two questions differ?
1. Tu devais fermer la porte à clé.
2. Tu aurais dû fermer la porte à clé.
And please don't simply translate them into English. Paraphrase would be better for me to understand. S'il vous plaît !
I’m wondering what pesant is grammatically in the sentence "Ces informations valent leur pesant d'or !" - a gerund? Or is pesant d’or a fixed expression?
In the example with Merci de votre appel, is de votre a kind of shorthand or contraction of d’avoir appelé?
Bonjour,
During this exercise I used different terms in this sentence:
In another French course, some years ago, I was given the sentence :
"Ça fait trois ans que je l'ai, et je n'ai pour ainsi dire pas eu d'ennui avec."
This appears to end with a preposition. Is it wrong?
