I understand that one would say 'Je suis avocat(e)'; if referring to a he/she/they, does this require 'le'/'la'/'un'/une'??
Yet, "un vrai nom" can mean a person's real name, correct?
Since the paragraph was using 'on' consistently, I chose "On y va ..." instead of "Allons-y ...". Why is this wrong?
why is the feminine adjective modele the same as the masculine and not modelee?
The first two sentences have similar structure, a salutation followed by a question or a declaration. However, the first uses an exclamation followed by a question; whereas, the second uses a comma after the salutation and then continues making it all one sentence, If you use the first sentence's pattern, i.e. using an exclamation instead of a comma, this is marked wrong. Please explain, as this is a recurring issue.. Thanks
Is the negation Ne...aucun/aucune always used with countable nouns?? '(Je n'ai aucune idée.') I am getting confused because of this post here -
https://french.kwiziq.com/questions/view/could-you-also-use-aucun
In this post, Chris mentions that....aucun refers to countable objects, then how can we say - Nous n’y voyons aucun mal. [We don’t see any harm in it.]
Here the noun mal is not countable.
Please clarify.
Can you please share the rule regarding placement of 'Ne...Aucun/Aucune' in Compound Tenses?? It does not seem to follow the regular rule. It would be great if it is also added to this lesson.
Is there a way to possibly include more nationalities
Can I also say - Je n'ai pas d'idée. [I don't have any idea.], just like I can say - Je n'ai pas de lait. [I don't have any milk.] or Je n'ai pas de sœur.
If not, why??
In the last sentence, why is it "Bien que les années aient passé" instead of "Bien que les années soient passées" considering that passer is intransitive in this case? Thank you
