Elle a un visage long et sérieux.
Why is long following the noun in this sentence?
As per BANGS rule, the adjective "long" usually precedes the noun. I came across this sentence in a book Entre Jeune, used for teaching french to 9th standard in schools in India.
Hi,
Could someone please help me to understand which is the appropriate way to use the verb 's'intéresser à' in the sentence 'The subject I am interested in is French'.
I have seen it used in two ways and am wondering which is correct or the most common.
1. La matière à laquelle je m'intéresse est le français.
2. La matière qui m'intéresse est le français.
Thank you :)
I'm really confused. I was marked wrong on a test when I put 'le jour de la Paques' for 'Easter Day'. The correct answer is supposedly 'le jour de Paques'.
Which is it?
I was surprised that you used the word un baiser for a kiss -- it has been my understanding that it is a rude word and has been "replaced" by un bisou. Have I been misguided, or is there a context in which it's okay to use the word? Thanks for whatever light you can shed on my benighted mind...
