According to the rule analysis, using en for feminine countries and a for masculine countries, why is the correct answer for the question "la?" Je vais visiter la France cet ete. Should the sentence not be Je vais visiter en France?
turc --> turque (pas le "c")
grec --> grecque (avec le "c")
pourquoi ??
Greetings,
In the example above, the speaker pronounces the "s" in 'tous'. What is the rule here? I am confused on the s being pronounced. The sentence is:
Vous faites tous vos devoirs?
When this command is negated, it becomes "Ne vous dépêchez pas ! (or ne te dépêche pas). I could not understand the rationale for this structure by reading the current lesson. I am guessing the reason may be because, nous, vous, and te are pronouns and so surrounded together with the verb by ne and negative word. Clarification would be greatly appreciated.
Bonjour à tous et toutes:
J'aimerais bien poser une question qui concern l'expression "sauter le pas". J'ai appris que cet expression signifie qu'on a décidé de se marier. J'aurais dire "jeter à l'eau", n'est pas? Je pense que cet expression est utilisé lorsqu'on parle d'un couple. Le deux veut-dire "take the plunge" en anglais. Seulement une observation. Don
i'm Scottish and "passer un exam" would be translated as "to sit an exam", so "Vous avez passé votre examen" to my mind would be "You sat your exam".
Just commenting :-)
I want to say "I have not written since December. Is this the correct way to say that: Je n’écris pas depuis décembre.
Why isn't it "qu'on ne s'est pas vus"? Thanks.
