Hello,

I'm hoping you can clarifying something.

I had to translate the following sentence to French:

This year I remembered her birthday for the first time

I used:

Je me souvenais s'anniversaire pour la première fois.

I was told this conjugation was incorrect and I had to use "je me suis souvenue".

I don't understand why?

Thanks in advance.

This was my question, then I answered 'Annie a gagné dix milliers d'euros'. 

The system did not accept it. ..okay, maybe I wrote dix milliers de euros - instead of d'.. I guess that was the problem.

However, the explanation I had, was 'Annie a gagné dix mille euros'.

Can I also use the other option above, 'dix milliers d'euros'?

Merciiiiii

Vicky

Hi! I was translating the sentence "Marie invited Julie to go to a concert. 

And the right answer was "Marie a invité Julie à un concert". 

Can I know the reason for which "à" and "un" are not contracted here please? 

Thank you in advance. 

Could you say, « À quelle heure est-ce qu'on arrive ? »

Merci pour tous les exemples, mais le rap "maison d'être" contient des prononciations qui diffèrent beaucoup du français standard. Je veux bien exposer les étudiants à des accents differents, mais dans ce cas, c'est exaggéré.
