My French friend says it should be "claustrophobe"? Is that right? Please help clarify.
Vous l'avez rencontre a une soiree - you met him at a party
Vous les avez rencontre a une soiree - you met them at a party
Il nous a rencontre a une soiree - he met us at a party
But the moment you talk about yourselves it becomes a reflexive verb, rather than just a special case of the pronoun matching the verb case?
Nous nous sommes rencontres a une soiree - we met (each other) at a party
Lots of the translation inferred the conditional ie. "ils nageaient jusqu'à la bouée" , "They used to swim ..." your translation "They would swim up to the bouy". They would swim..., should it not be "Ils nageraint. This is extremely confusing
Hi. I love these dictées. Is there any way of getting access to more of them?
Thanks

It seems that with some adverbs formed by adding -ment to the feminine adjective form the "middle e" is pronounced and others not (example: lentement (not pronounce) and fortement (pronounced). Am I hearing this correctly? If so, is there a rule when to pronounce and when not to?
Thanks!
Why participé passé not agree in gender as he was talking about elle
Reverso context gives several examples of passer being used to mean to pass an exam.
What am I missing????
Hello,
How does one know how to conjugate pronouncements like "Vive les fiancés"? My first instinct is that vivre should use the third person plural of le subjonctif here, because les fiancés is third person plural. However, is it "vive" instead of "vivent" because it is a fixed expression? Any more examples or fiches pédagogiques would be helpful, thanks!
Does one say "Je n'aime pas de...." or "Je n'aime pas le/la/les/ce, etc?
I know that me changes to moi, te changes to toi, what about se? Does it become soi?
Eg: tu m'assieds --> assieds-moi
Tu s'assieds --> assieds-soi??
