French language Q&A Forum

Is there a difference between "attendre à ce que" and "attendre que"? "J'attendrai que tu t'endormes" = "I'll wait for you to fall asleep" = "I'll wait until you fall asleep". I see no difference in meaning and the simple "que" is more elegant.

Hi as I am learning about this expression I'm trying to find an audio clip with just this expression to practice saying it by itself but, I can not find it.

Thank you

In the quiz above, there was a question about the sentence:

Après manger, les filles feront leurs devoirs

I was slightly confused as I would have written this sentences as "apres avoir mange" (with appropriate accents) at the beginning and not apres manger. In this lesson it seems to imply that to write apres+infinitive is wrong: Après avoir fait = After doing in French (auxiliary avoir)

I think I may be missing something and would appreciate some help. Is manger being used as a noun here maybe?

i understand that it must be sortir de plus place to mean to leave/ go out but what does sortir without de mean and how is it used?

-> qu’il avait écrite  

The email labelled this exercise as B1, but once opened is labeled A2.  I thought It was rather easy.

I didn't get a single translation correct, not even close. Was this really A2? I feel so defeated. There was so much new vocabulary in there. Is it possible to add more hints (like vocab) for this level so we can focus on structure?

Why are the sentences  "Elles sont belles" and "Elles sont aussi bonnes..." using elles instead of c'est/ce sont?

1. Can we aussi say ' Il ne devrait y avoir aucun problème ' ?

2. I wanted to check with you what type of pillows you use. 

The answer is je voulais vérifier avec vous quel type d'oreillers vous utilisez. 

Why there is no 'que' after 'oreillers' ?
