Bonjour!
I am confused on a couple of adjective forms-> mou and fou. Can you spell out the plural forms for masc and fem for these two? ex: soft couches, crazy scenes, etc
Hi Aurélie,
This question is not related to this lesson per se, but I am not sure I understand this correctly, it is in my quiz tests.
'La lettre que j'ai ecrite (cannot type the accent here) which translates to the letter that I wrote. Why is 'ecrite without the accent to show that it is in the past tense? What am I being taught here?
Another question: Is there something wrong with the bot? He is making me loose time.
Thank you.
Hi Aurélie, In the very first example you use the subjunctive with the same subject Je ne pense pas que je puisse le faire. I thought that I had read a rule saying there must be two different subjects. ??
If pendant is used to describe past durations with a clear beginning and end, and the imperfect is used to describe continuing actions or habits in the past, why is the example "J'étais là pendant quarante-cinq minutes" instead of "J'ai été là pendant quarante-cinq minutes" since the passé composé is used to describe actions with a clear beginning & end in the past.
Is there a rule exception for using pendant and l'imparfait?
