Just thought I mention in case some US members are confused: Most Americans say "being/standing in line," but most New Yorkers (and some others on the US East Coast) say "being/standing on line" and only some Americans (those familiar with British English from television, movies or traveling!) would understand "the queue." So thanks for "translating" the phrase "the queue" for us Americans.
Hi Aurelie / Rowen, I started with a score of 80+% for this topic, and an overall C1 score of 99.01%. I took the quiz again getting both answers right yet when I returned to my dashboard b=my topic score had lowered to 76 and my overall score to 98+. Is Kizbot affected by solar flares perhaps?
Yours in confusion, Alexandra
My questions are the same as Sally’s last two. I think that the English tense is misleading in the sentence to be translated. “As you don’t pay an entrance fee you are encouraged to give whatever you feel like to help with the upkeep of the museum” seems a more accurate translation for this sentence in English.
“I would really like that other countries could follow this example !” for the last sentence.
It’s just a thought.
Why does one use allons gagner instead of gagnerons (future tense)? What determines which is better?
Hello, I speak French and some Spanish.. Would love Italian if you could..Please Prego..
The person I’m thinking about or the person of whom or about whom I’m thinking. Why is de laquelle wrong since the lesson indicates it means of whom or about whom? Thanks.
Hello is the expression tant miuex the same as bonne chehance. Can I use it in the same CONTEXT?
I understand that, as a general rule, in French, we add definite articles before a country’s name. E.g.: J’aime la France. However, I also understand that if the country’s name comes after “de”, and the country is feminine, then, we omit the definite article. E.g.: Je viens de France. However, I am terribly confused by the phrase “Au service de la France” - why is there a definite article after “de” in this phrase?
when we use a pronoun to ask where it is we say "où est-ce qu'est le restaurant " but what about subject pronouns? I don't know which one is true please help
où est-ce qu'est il?
où est-ce qu'il est?
