J'ai lu trois livres dont les tiens/ les vôtres. [I read 3 books including yours.]
Is this correct? Or should it be le tien? Masculine/plural form should be used because the noun is 'les livres'?
For the adjective for beautiful,masc beau,and fem belle,given the guidance in the study notes the adverb is formed from the masc which ends in a vowel ( beau) ,so I assume it's beaucoup. Any more common adjectives which don't add -ment to the masculine adjective?
In the 2nd quiz on plus-que-parfait (La soiree de mes Reves), the 4th blank from the END requires us to conjugate faciliter in the plus-que-parfait tense.
According to me, it should be : ce qui nous avions facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite); however the solutions key is showing it to be nous avait facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite).
Can you please explain why we are using the 3rd person singular form of conjugation of the auxiliary verb in imparfait (il /elle / on avait) rather than that with nous (avions) here ?
I'm at >97% on A0 and yet basically all of the questions are A0-related. Any ideas on how to move onto A1 material?
For this lesson example, there is no preposition here (transitive), yet être is still used as the auxiliary? Doesn't this contradict the rule?
Je suis un peu perdu. Pourquoi la texte utilise 'souhaitez' et pas 'souhaiteriez'? J'ai vu que cette texte traduire comme 'What time would you like this call?'
I'm curious about why we say "Je lui parle", but "Je pense à lui. Can we say, "Je parle à lui" and Je lui pense"? Why does "parler" use an indirect object pronoun and "penser" use a stress pronoun? What is the reasoning behind this? Is it something to do with the meaning of the verbs, or is there no logic to it?
What are the conjugations of other irregular ER verbs?
