French language Q&A Forum

Speaking about vegan activists this week, News in Slow French used these forms. I can't even find them on conjugation sites! Are they la voix passive? They don't use "par"...

"Boucheries ont été vandalisées ces dernier mois."

"Magazins ont été aspergés de faux sang."

D'autres ont eu brisées les vitrines."

Very confusing. Thanks for your help!

Hello,

Please explain the following sentence: Je préfère une salade de tomates - why is the indefinite article not 'des' as we are stating tomates?

Thank you

Bonjour,

Can someone please explain why the following is marked incorrect?  I'm having the same issue that Michael appeared to have in December but it's still outstanding for me.

"Qu'est-ce que c'est La Sorbonne" is scored incorrect, and  the accepted answer is:

"Qu'est-ce que La Sorbonne", but according to the lesson:

If you want to ask what something is by name, simply add the name of the thing after c'est quoi or qu'est-ce que c'est. These are not the most elegant questions, but probably the most commonly used.

Merci
