What's wrong here? I use these tomatoes. These are the last ones.
Ce sont is correct.Ceux-ci is marked as wrong.In English - Marie was stroking her cat / Her cat was being stroked by Marie - but était caressé is 'was stroked' or 'used to be stroked' - am I right?
I keep seeing "s'est" and such, but I don't know why it's used. I can't understand the meaning behind it, and I also see "s'est terminé" when terminer isn't a verb that uses etre when conjugated into passé composé.
I would have expected devoir to be used here instead of avoir. Could someone clarify? Maybe I'm not understanding the tenses clearly. Thanks!
Bonjour Tous,
The correct answer to the above question is given as 'Elle a monte'. But in the lesson it is very clear, montre meaning to get on something, takes etre. I see others are having trouble grappling with montre, I'm not sure the lesson helps. Au secours!
Why in this sentence are we using past perfect in one part and subjunctive present in the other? For temporal coherence, shouldn't we use the subjunctive past in the second part?
Also, can we use 'reprimande' in French, instead of remarques, for reprimand in English?
I found that in ce. it stress on u a bit more. especially ce sont. it sounds like suh sont.
May I know why does the text use "encore les trois" instead of "tous les trois"? Merci.

Merci l'automne poésie c'est fantastique.
