French language Q&A Forum

It would be a closer translation I think to say "goes with" in English. As English uses "to go" in the exact same way as french. E.g., "that shirt goes with my sister", is a closer translation than "that shirt suits my sister". In my opinion, as it maintains the "to go with" lineage in its meaning. 

I was wondering if "je préfère rester dedans" would be an acceptable response?

why do you say 'jeter un coup d'oeil rapide'? Doesn't coup d'oeil already imply a quick look ? 

I heard "Nous avons tous les deux nos carte Avantage". "Nos" instead of "Une". Is there a typo in transcription?

How is it possible to know thr exact punctuation in dictations when none is given? Why is it not just the French which is corrected? What a wind up.

Hi,

This is the example given in the lesson: "Le mardi 5 mars, j'ai rencontré Lola." (On Tuesday the 5th of March, I met Lola.) And in the test, the correct answer is "Mardi, 6 janvier, j'étais malade." (On Tuesday the 6th of January, I was sick.) I am still confused about why it is not just 'mardi' or just 'le mardi' in both sentences. 

Thank you for your response.

Warm regards, 

Rahul
