when do we use the passé simple and not the imparfait ?
thank you.
Are there any specifications in futur proche. For example, in passé compose when conjugated with être, if the sujet is feminin then we have to add an “e” to the passé form of the verb
Why is 'enchanté de vous rencontrer' a commonly used french expression not listed among the correct options for 'Pleased to meet you' ?
I was taught (in both English-taught French classes and by French-speaking people) that the use of 'on' for 'we' was very colloquial and borderline bad grammar. I was baffled by the construction of the sentence using 'we' in English. I'm annoyed to be classified as 'lower intermediate' when I am considerably more advanced than that, even if I'm out of practice. I need to practice, but won't get much if I'm getting questions at this level and being challenged only by a confusing usage.
Ma mère est bien. Mais je crois que mon père est généralement mieux que ma mère, parce qu’il a une bonne disposition.
Vous nagez très bien. En fait, je pense que vous nagez peut-être mieux que tous les autres. Vous nagez le mieux, il n’y a aucune question à propos de ça.
Merci d'avance.
Is "de la" in this sentence partitif?
Can we also translate it to "c'est la même couleur"?
Similar question in the quiz (instead a female buying coffee), but when I chose the "some" option (she buys some coffee), I was not granted the score. That's contradictory and confusing. Which is it? With the "some", or without?
As per dictionary the word magasin is masculine.. so why are we saying here retirer en magasin?
