Hello,
Would you be able to use the 'on' form of the verb in a sentence such as 'my family and I watch a film - ma famille et moi regarde un film' or would it need to be the nous form - ma famille et moi regardons un film?
Could you also say here ' nous étions allés écouter des chants de Noël à l'église locale.'?
Bonjour,
During this exercise I used different terms in this sentence:
why is it 'elle faisait son jogging' and not 'elle faisait DU jogging' ?
Is there a difference in usage between these three translations for "it took me an hour to do something":
"Il m'a fallu une heure pour faire qch"
"J'ai mis une heure pour faire qch"
"Ça m'a pris une heure pour faire qch"
Thank you in advance
How do you know whether or not an adjective goes before or after the noun?
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?
