The second singular person of the verb "To have", in French, ends with "s", and I thought that if after a word ending in s, or even x(?), there is a word starting with a vocal, or y, then to pronunce correctly you have to do the "liaison". Then why in this case we don't do that? may be because it's a verb?
I asked a question here about a wrong answer that I was confused by but I got the question again and realized I must have just typed my answer wrong the first time because what I thought was correct was indeed correct the second time. However, this program is not allowing me to delete my original question, only edit it, which is why you are reading this.
so basically you must memorize every noun's gender (le "noun", la "noun") to be able to use partitive articles correctly?
Just curious - is there a difference in the pronunciation of these two phrases ?
I don't understand whether this phrase: "puis je me ferais dorer la pilule" is something whose meaning can only be determined in context.
In the context I heard it, which regarded enjoying being at the beach, it seems to mean: "soaking up the sun", which I would never have understood it to mean if I didn't look it up in Google translate... but perhaps google is mistaken in this case. Also the link provided below does not get to a webpage with the answer. Can you let me know what this phrase means in general?
I am not getting difference between Quelle est ta nationalité? And Quelle est votre nationalité?
Why aren't "guillemets" (chevrons) accepted ? Dans « Le cœur a ses raisons ». My understanding is the chevrons are the standard quotation marks while the double quotes, as in English, are only used when quoting inside quotes, for example, « something "else" ».
I'd really like the comprehension exercises to be in French - please!
Why does Kwiziq mark you down for either not using punctuation marks which are not spoken in the dictation or for not placing them a letter distance away from the phrase they refer to?
