French language Q&A Forum

HI everyone,

So to my understanding reading the previous answers to the questions unambiguously would mean both am and pm? 

Also I know the two different ways to say the numbers in both 12 hour and 24hour but,  and as I'm reading the responses it seems that past 6pm you would use like deux treize quatroze etc. Would I be correct and if it's past midnight would it be the same?

Thanks

Nicole

Ok, I should have heard the "la" but I didn't - and I put "le mi-août" because août is masculine. Is it, then, the case that if you use the prefix "mi-" the whole thing ( "mi-qqch") invariably becomes feminine?

Hello, please advise why affreuse is in front of the noun. je souffre d'affreuses crampes

Thank you 

Excusez moi madame? I do not know how to conjugate the verb Entre

In your lesson, you describe …aine as being ‘about’ or ‘or so’ and yet in the example you translate deux douzaine… as being ‘two dozen’. In UK English , a dozen is NORMALLY, exactly 12, but I acknowledge it CAN also have ‘or so’ connotations.  Perhaps not the best example?  Love the site for learning French by the way. Much better than well-known alternatives)

I am confused.  I know Un is used with masculine nouns and Une is with feminine nouns.  But when I looked at the examples of these two:

Un exemple

Une aventure

They both use the English An, but in French, both nouns are feminine, ending in E.  So, why use the masculine form of Un with Exemple???

La partie de la phrase, en anglais, est "...I don't have a choice..."  Mon interprétation d'anglais était une choix ou du choix et ce n'est pas un particulier choix, qui demanderait l'article 'le'.  Dans ce cas, j'ai écrit "...je n'ai pas de choix" ce qui était faux.  Est-ce que mon interprétation n'est pas correct ?  Pourquoi "le choix" au lieu de "de choix"?

I used bon marché for cheap instead of donné.  Is there a reason why that wouldn’t be an alternative option in this context: les vols transatlantiqus ne sont pas donnés ?
