Is the pronunciation of "nombreuses années" in the first example correct? To my ear it sounds odd to emphasize the "es" when making the liaison.
What are the English translations for these 2 little phrases? I’m guessing Quand même here means something along the lines of “all the same”. I’m not sure about Du coup … is it something like “having said that “? It’s the dictation re paying by cash or card. Thanks Sue
Can you please explain why "J'ai les jeux marron" is not "marrons"?
Please reconsider level of execise. I would suggest rather it is a B2 level because it is considerably easier than the other C1 execises
Statement: ...Je me sens beaucoup mieux ! Question: Tu sens une différence ?
Why does the question use sentir and not se sentir (ie, "Tu te sens...)? Is it because the statement is about feeling better ("internal" feeling) and the question is about feeling a difference (perceiving something)? Would "Tu te sens mieux ?" be a correct way to ask if someone is feeling better?
I like to try to expand my vocabulary and came across the verb répartir and used it in my translation. AI Overview quotes : répartir implies a more active process of distributing or sharing out, while "diviser" is more about the act of dividing itself. What’s your opinion ? I acknowledge that this is an A2 exercise and perhaps répartir is a little bit highfalutin but is it acceptable ? Also, the hints at A2 are definitely useful.
I saw "paraître" followed by the past participle and not the infinitive in A Day In The Countryside.
"qui paraissaient occupés" was the answer while I had offered "qui paraissaient s'occuper"
Can you advise ?
When would you use the "aller faire..." format such as in "Avec mes copines, on va faire du shopping ce weekend", versus just "faire du shopping"?
