How do we use plus que parfait in grammar and in composition
Why is "I really feel like an ice cream !" "J'ai vraiment envie d'une glace !" in the past tense? Isn't the statement in the present tense as it is happening now?
Je ne partirai pas d'ici à moins que nous ne décidions où nous allions/irons?
Ou peut-être:
Je ne paritrai pas d'ici à moins que nous ne décidions où aller?
Are there any fixed verbs for pronominal, or any verb can be a pronominal verb ? Somebody, reply please.
Merci en avance !
I agree with others that this lesson is very confusing. There’s no explanation as to why jeter and appeler are different from the other eTer and eLer verbs discussed in the section above them (lever, acheter). I think this has to do with how the present tense is spelled, but some more explicit explanation would be helpful. Further, the very top section (I realize I’m moving from bottom to top) gives accent rules for ALL eXer verbs, so what comes below is confusing because it appears there are exceptions and we’re not told why. Thanks for any help in clarifying this.
J'ajouterais Agnès Varda et Chantal Akerman à cette liste. Je pense qu'elles sont Belges mais elles encore sont formidables. Catherine Breillat est provocatrice mais ses films sont souvent excellents.
In the first example, "se demander" does not agree in number or gender because the reflexive pronoun "se" is an indirect object. Why doesn't that same rule apply to "se sentir" (I feel)? Thanks.
Why not "en Afrique" rather than "pour l'Afrique"?
