Does not the 2024 Tour de France end in Nice (because of the Olympics in Paris)?
A2 question « The family are totally unbearable.
La famille est
Les familles sont
La famille sont
Les familles est
The question is incorrect in English,hence it prompts an incorrect answer in French. I suggest that the English version be written correctly (singular) so that the student is not misled.
What is the function of “y” in the phrase “y compris chez les plus jeunes …”?
I am wondering when I should use à qui versus auquel/à laquelle.
For the sentence: The girls who I am thinking about are pretty.
I said: les filles auxquelles je pense sont jolies.
But the correct answer was: les filles à qui je pense sont jolies.
What is the difference between these two ways of writing the sentence? Thank you!
I am uncertain why it is "de plus belle" and not "de plus beau".
It seems to refer back to le fou rire, which is masculine.
Maybe "plus belle" is a fixed term?
Are all verbs strictly reflexive verbs or can they sometimes not be reflexive
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?
Pourquoi pas "une cocarde bleue et rouge"...... ?
Thought you should know. I have twice tried to go on to the website suggested in the video and both times have been exposed to what I think is a scam. A realistic, but I think, false website appears for McFee virus security, and offers subscription at a lower price than going to the real website offers. Think your techies might need to take a look.
In the sentence 'when France won the World Cup ' I used remporté instead of 'gagné' but it remporté wasn't given as an option. Is there a subtle difference in their respective meanings?
