Just a little addition to this topic. I don't know what the diminutive word for "little camel" though.
The quiz asked: How would you tell your friends to have faith? "____ confiance, mes amis!" Have faith, my friends.
I answered "Faites" but it wanted "Ayez". Nearly all lessons here that refer to "confiance" associate it with "faire" - not "avoir". There does not seem to be one specifically on "Have faith". What is the grammar rule here?
How about "in the evening" or "in the morning" as a one-time event? I understand that if one does something every evening the term is "le soir" (Tu ne lis que le soir). But what if I'm referring to a specific evening, for example: On est partis tôt et on est arrivés à la maison (in the evening). While I'm asking, how would one modify that to express "early in the evening."
In the test the correct answer is "I can do it". Based on my current knowledge, it literally means "I know how to do it"
Is this just a case of creative license in translation?
In the four Texas examples above we have “Etats-Unis”. Should these all be “États-Unis”?
Hi,
I am seeing the past participle agreeing in number, adding "s" when I see les lui or les leur
What do I need to know about the status of the past participle in an example such as... "Nous les leur avons montrés."
