How do we put the accents?
I don't understand this sentence at all. Perhaps de rever, but first person singular? The rest of the exercise is in the past, it has already happened.
In "la surprise n'en sera que plus grande" why "n'en sera que" rather than "ne sera que"? The lesson says en can replace the preceding de+phrase but I cannot see de+phrase.
I chose the correct answer and yet I was scored as if I had not. This is not the first time this has happened. Why does it happen and how can I correct the situation when it happens?
is this correct
J'aime beaucoup cette idée de proposer des exercices pour nous aider à lire et à écouter le français. Mais serait-il possible d'ajouter aussi des questions ou un quiz pour aider les apprenants à consolider le nouveau vocabulaire? Par exemple, sur TV5Monde, il y a beaucoup d'exercices qui vérifient sa compréhension des textes. En faisant les exercices, on apprend beaucoup et on doit penser à la signification des mots et des expressions, ce qui est vraiment utile.
I find the questions which ask things like "If I say "Tu es français.", who am I speaking to: Lucie or Hugo?" quite frustrating, because the gendering of names isn't fixed. According to https://madame.lefigaro.fr/prenoms/prenom/garcon/lucie, Lucie, whilst predominantely feminine, has been a mixed name for over a century.
It might be helpful to add a hint to these kinds of questions that says "Hugo is male, Lucie is female".Way too fast to understand!
Bon jour.
If indirect speech is in the present tense, is it necessary to replace ce/cette/etc with something?
E.g.
Sophie demande à Oliver: “Explique-moi cette règle !”
Elle lui demande de lui expliquer cette règle-là.
Because in the indirect speech we don't know what is "cette" règle.
In the audio for “Bonjour, je souhaiterais visiter l'Afrique francophone.” is anyone else hearing instead “Bonjour, je souhaiterais à visiter l'Afrique francophone.”?
