In the following sentence, " C'est aussi de Bourgogne que viennent les fameux escargots de Bourgogne, préparés dans leur délicieux beurre à l'ail et au persil.", why do you use que and not qui? I always thought if you use que, you need to have a subject after it, but qui is the subject and is followed directly by the conjugated verb. However in this case, que seems to replace a 3rd person plural subject.
The lesson to explain when to use le subjontif or l'indicatif doesn't, in plain language explain the trigger to cause one to use either tense. It needs to more deeply describe when and why each tense is chosen. This, of course, is my opinion as a student.
Bonjour,
Pourquoi « Va-t-en » mais pas « Vas-en » , et « Vas-y » mais pas « Va-t-y » ?
Merci d'avance.
What is the difference between m’appelle and s’appelle? When is it appropriate to use each version?
"My grandmother left Spain" was written as "Ma grand-mère a quitté L'Espagne" in this exercise. I thought "Spain" in the middle of a sentence like this would be written as "l'Espagne" without the "L" being capitalised ? Or are both versions accepted ?
Why does it keep switching between passé composé and imparfait?
e,g, Il portait un costume, but il s'est très bien comporté.
Elle devait lire un poème, then quand j'ai fini de lire
Here we are talking specifically about Mc Donald then why Il /Elle is not used
