In which cases would I use each of lequel/laquelle/lesquels/lesquelles
For example, for "Les pâtisseries sont toutes délicieuses, mangez n'importe ----" would I use laquelle or lesquelles, or does it depend on what the speaker is trying to convey?
Thanks!
I actually had two questions. One was the same as that of Alvine. I thought that the description of past feelings required the imparfait?
My second question is the use of « avec moi » and not « chez moi ». Couldn’t either one be correct? I suppose that « avec moi » indicates that she was staying specifically with and for him, but just wondered if « chez moi » could not have the same connotation?
Thank you!
Mm
In the sentence, "Elle a été très impressionnée" we used passe compose whereas with "c'etait très romantique" we used imparfait. Aren't they both expressing an emotion so it should be imparfait for the first example instead of passe compose? Please help me out Thank you
"j'aurai écrit" - should be 'j'aurais écrit', should it not?
I'm trying to pay attention to where the s ending one word is pronounced or not when followed by a word starting with a vowel, is there a rule I can memorise? For instance in the examples here it is not sounded in 'tu has une soeur' but in both of 'Ils ont un...' and '...des yeux'
Hi, I am just wondering if in the following sentences, we could use " l'on" instead of "on" - as per
https://www.lawlessfrench.com/grammar/on-vs-lon/
(L') On passe toujours La Saint Sylvestre entre potes.
(L') On allume la télé pour voir le feu d'artifice de la tour Eiffel,
Et puis, le lendemain matin, comme (l') on aura tous la gueule de bois (comme d'habitude)
(l') on remplira nos flûtes d'Efferalgan et (l') on criera 'Santé!' en rigolant.
I never know what to do when I've been writing informally and suddenly find that I have to use first person plural pronouns other than the subject pronoun. How would you say something like "We fed our pets" or "They will find us if we stay here" in casual French?
In the examples, there is this sentence: "Ma tante est passée par la boulangerie en venant ici." In the sentence, what purpose does the "en" serve?
