Don't know about other people but I would really appreciate a section in the lesson on when to use "aimer" and when to say "plaire à". Great lessons individually on how to use these two expressions but not on when or why one is used instead of the other. Merçi!
How do we choose correctly between Être à ou Être de, like in the sentence above?
why magnifique come
after noun in « endroits magnifiques »
but before noun in « magnifiques gâteaux »
Is this an exception case that we omit the "à", do you have other similar example?
Thank you.
Could the phrase "I admire how he managed to ..." be translated using "comment" rather than "comme"?
Hi guys,
I still don't get it.. I thought you could use c'est if after you have un, une, le, la, les, des. Then, why people use c'est ma mère instead of elle est ma mère ? Thank you
I know this has been asked before, but I'm having trouble determining when to use definite articles when talking about things in general. The two examples in the lesson seem to contradict each other:
Je n'aime ni le fromage ni le lait.
Il ne veut ni vin ni eau.
Why is is "le fromage/le lait" in the first example, and simply "vin/eau" in the second one? According to the English translations for each, both sentences seem to refer to the items in general.
Thanks!
