Would it be possible to re-listen at the original speed of the announcer?
The final segment of this exercise to translate is, "my choice was long made!" . I don't understand this phrase, does it mean "my choice was long ago made" or "my choice was made long ago?"
I can’t quite understand why the subordinate clause here is in the present when the main sentence is past. Nous avons passé une bonne journée ________d'avis. I wrote “sans que je n’aie changé” but the correct answer was in the present “sans que je ne change”…
(We had a nice day without my changing my mind).
Why is the infinitive used in this sentence after 'tout'? What does this sentence mean exactly in English?
Hi there, why is it 'La grammaire francaise? Je trouve ça trop difficile,' and not 'Je trouve elle trop difficile?'
Thanks!
I'm currently teaching my high school French students the different uses of "Bon" and "Bien". We've already studied Bien as an adverb and are now focusing on its use as an adjective. One website that I am using for example phrases gave me this sentence: "Il est bon de se reposer après une longue journée)." Another one was: "Il est bon de vérifier votre travail avant de le soumettre." Based on my understanding and recent study of this concept, it seems that both phrases should use Bien in the place of Bon.
Any thoughts or explanations are appreciated.
Since it's a matter of opinion, I'm unclear about why the correct statement is "Je l'ai toujours pensé" and NOT "Je le toujours pensais". Any clarification would be much appreciated.
Can I use " Jules m'apprendra à faire de la raquette à neige" instead of "Jules m'apprendra à faire du snowboard"
I've checked a couple of dictionaries, and I think oxide is not a french word, and it should be oxyde.
