French language Q&A Forum

HI there, long time fan, first time commenter. 

I have no idea what 'that's it' is supposed to mean in this context? It isn't a phrase I would ever use unless used in the following scenarios: 

"That's it! You've cracked the case." (When referring to a previous piece of information or clue or input).

"That's it. I've had enough." 

"That's it. I've been looking for it everywhere" (here I would use 'that's the one' instead).

Could you please provide an alternative of what this is supposed to mean? As this translation feels awfully unnatural to me. Is this a specific phenomenon that can't really be translated or is situational? As I would never say "That's it. She finally got her results" in this way?  

1. Is there any word called 'reprimande' in French denoting the same sense as reprimand in English. 

2.  Le pire était à l'école où l'on m'envoyait dans le bureau du directeur.   In this sentence means they?

3. This sentence is difficult for me to understand: je m'étais calmé avant qu'il ne soit trop tard !

The first part of the sentence is in the plus-que-parfait tense, while the second part is in the subjonctif present tense. Since the past perfect tense is always used to describe a past action that took place before another past action, shouldn't the subjonctif passé here be more appropriate? The English sentence itself illustrates this fact: ... had calmed down ... was

Thank you! Overall, a difficult but good exercise to think about the complex constructions of the sentences.

Can I say en plus de ça to say "on top of that"? 

Thanks

Hi, the teaching part is blacked out? Please advise, thank you . 

je veux dire: “I need a teaspoon of milk” = is it “je dois une cuillerée du lait” ? Thanks in advance :) 

Can we say 'partout dans le monde' instead of 'le monde entier' to signify all over the world?

Salut,

Maybe it's only me, but I hear this as "Kay" est-ce qui faut faire . Is this correct? I thought it was "Keh" est-ce...

Merci!
