Si on consulte le site web de l'Académie Française, on voit que aout est aussi correct --> https://www.dictionnaire-academie.fr/article/A9A2062
What is the difference between vite and rapidement?
I translated this as 'continue à inspirer'
Could you explain when to use 'continuer de' and when to use 'continuer à'?
Merci
Pourriez-vous m'expliquer s'il vous plaît pourquoi on utilise "sa timidité extrême" mais "son extrême timidité".... pourquoi le genre de timidité change avec le lieu de "extrême"? merci
One line has an answer of “C'est l'un des plus anciens lieux de culte du pays.”
and then also of “C'est un des plus anciens lieux de culte du pays.”
But the audio is “c’est l’un”, not “c’est un”, so I guess the second answer shouldn’t appear as an option, even if it’s a grammatically correct alternative.
Not a big issue, but I thought I’d mention it.
When d’où you use commencer à and commencer de? I have seen both used.
Since se rappeler can be used both with and without de, are these cases fine?
1) Je me rappelle de la voyage -> je m'en rappelle.
2) Je me rappelle la voyage -> je me la rappelle.
3) Je me rappelle Jean -> je me le rappelle.
In “en espérant que je ne me rende pas compte de son absence.”
We have “rendre” in the subjunctive as “rende”. This has been triggered by “espérer que”. But I thought that an affirmative use of “espérer que” would use the Indicative as opposed to the Subjunctive. I don’t know what additional implication the use of the gerund has though…

Alors:
"Maman EMPORTAIT toujours beaucoup de....."
"Tu APPORTAIS tes poupées....."
Better to use correct grammar, esp. on a teaching site ...AIN'T that so?
I appreciate the attempt but for me this project has been a failure. I still have no idea what I would be eating. I have so many questions about this last menu that I don't even know where to start. I am not even clear about the cost. So frustrating!
