It would be a closer translation I think to say "goes with" in English. As English uses "to go" in the exact same way as french. E.g., "that shirt goes with my sister", is a closer translation than "that shirt suits my sister". In my opinion, as it maintains the "to go with" lineage in its meaning.
When do you begin a sentence with où versus vous (or tu)? What’s the point of it being written both ways? Is one more common than the other?
How is it possible to know thr exact punctuation in dictations when none is given? Why is it not just the French which is corrected? What a wind up.
When the time expressed uses hour numbers under 12 (with either clock), you use et quart/et demie/moins le quart, and not quinze/trente/quarante-cinq.
Does it also mean that, et quart/et demie/moins le quart can be used with under 12 and above 12 both?
Thanks,
