If this read like that, "who" being the subject like homme (man), would that have made "ce qui" correct? In American English we are more likely to say "the man who" she is going to marry rather than "the man with whom" she is going to marry, even though both are correct.
The literal meaning is something like "make pale with envy." Is there a better translation?
After a listening or writing practice, I check the Q&A. Sometimes there is a discussion that I find I want to revisit later. How can I get to the Q&A for a lesson without re-doing the lesson? Also, how can I find questions I have previously posted?
In the lesson, the example is " Il viendra de peur que tu ne sois vexée." and the translation is "He's coming for fear that you'd be offended." It is says: YOU'D or you WOULD be offended
So the quiz is I didn't want to listen for fear that you'd lying. so why isn't it "Je ne voulais pas écouter de peur que tu ne SOIS menti" just like "tu ne SOIS vexée"?
But you say the correct answer is "Je ne voulais pas écouter de peur que tu ne mentes."
thank you.
Here depuis serves as an adverb? Can I use the present l'indicatif to construct the sentence? Thanks.
Can I say, "Tu prends ton café avec lait?" to ask if someone takes their coffee with milk? This is a direct translation from English.
It really sounds to me that the speaker is saying ``Sophie, au va....`` I know it doesn`t make sense but it really sounds like that`s what he`s saying. Can you please check?
I saw this translation in one of my exercises
Je tiens à ces boucles d'oreille comme à la prunelle de mes yeux.I love these earrings dearly.
Why wouldn't it be someting like "J'adore tellement ces boucles d'oreille?"
I don't understand the verb tenir in this context
How would you say I have to leave here within half an hour?
In the first example, the tu form of the verb changes in the imperative, ie, the 's' is dropped. Why?
