Chris if you're still there can you help with this please? You said
Il se demandait si elle viendrait. -- He wondered whether she’d come. (Indirect speech)
Je me demande qu’elle vienne. -- I wonder whether she’s coming. (Direct speech)
But the lesson says
"je me demande si tu vas venir ou pas.
I wonder whether you'll come or notSo it seems to me that "Je me demande" is used with "si" + imperative and not que + subjunctive. Can you throw any light on this please?
Hello -
For "We are leaving at 4", I chose, "Nous quittons à quatre heures" instead of "Nous partons à quatre heures", because the lesson says partir must be followed by de or pour when it is not used on its own. Why is "Nous partons à quatre heures" correct? And why is "Nous quittons à quatre heures" wrong?
Why does the place of "magnifique" varies in the sentences below though it's neither an adjective that qualifies a proper noun nor a numerical adjective?
J'ai vu des endroits magnifiques.
Il a mangé de magnifiques gâteaux.
