Here depuis serves as an adverb? Can I use the present l'indicatif to construct the sentence? Thanks.
Pourriez-vous m'expliquer pourquoi dans cette phrase il faut utiliser le pluriel: a + les = aux?

Merci!

Hello! I was always taught that adjectives related to beauty, age, goodness and size went before the noun. I was wondering why the translation is “une toile monumentale” rather than une monumentale toile. Thank you!
The sentence to which I refer is, Géricault's masterpiece was directly inspired by the tragic shipwreck of the real frigate "The Medusa" in 1816, which fifteen people survived to in atrocious conditions: hunger, thirst and, worst of all, cannibalism. I believe the correct grammar would be "... in which fifteen people survivied in ( or under) atrocious conditions...". The translation to 'auquel' becomes more evident.
