In the instructions, the letters "t" and "e" on "lentemente" are crossed out but only the "e" should be crossed out (to become "lentement"); "lentemen" is not a word.
Bonjour. In the above examples, I see personne n'est heureux. The lesson does not talk about plurality I do not think.
In the quiz, now I can't remember, but I may or may not have used a singular masculine word. Do you have any extra information as plurality in this lesson? Merci.
I have encountered this acronym a few times in the Q&A Forums, for example: 'Only if the COD appears before the past participle ...' I have also searched the wonderful KWIZIQ site without success. Can someone tell me what COD means?
Like everyone else, I find this lesson very confusing, and I think it is because it's using a very poor example of when to use articles. I believe the translation is incorrect.
Je n'aime ni le fromage ni le lait.
I like neither cheese nor milk.
If this example is talking about specific cheese and specific milk, then the English translation should be, "I like neither the cheese nor the milk." But that is not what you have here. The translation you give is general, not specific. It really makes the whole lesson contradictory and confusing.
I wrote '`a moins que Bruno ne vienne ...' vienne is the correct form of subjunctive and 'ne' is needed after the conjunction '`a moins que'. I have read in lesson notes that the 'ne' can be dropped in a dialogue. However, in the short quiz which followed that exercise, 'ne' expletive was before the subjunctive verb in a dialogue. I don't believe I was wrong with my form of the subjunctive nor the 'ne' expletive.
