Why is is not "vous n'avez pas DE petite place......"?
Are the baby names inherently masculine, or do they have female counterparts too, such as un chiot --> une chiotte; un chaton --> une chatonne etc?
Bonjour,
I think that the Futur Proche follows the rule in this lesson but I could not find any confirming examples. Can someone confirm that the following sentence is correct?
Je vais nettoyer l'appart pendant que tu seras partie.Thanks,
John
Toujours is being red-lined at the end of this lesson. However as the action "hesitation' or 'being unsure' is ongoing, these 3 links from Laura Lawless suggest to me that toujours is the better word for 'still' in this context. At the very least, they indicate that toujours is a correct option.

What is the possessive pronoun for "on"? Is there a fixed one or does it depend on the situation i.e. whether "on" is used as a replacement for vous or nous? Thank you!
The pronunciation here does not elide the s of pas into ecouter. I would have thought it would be pronounced, PAZ ECOUTER. No?
I have mentioned time as six heures quarante-cinq why it is marked wrong
Not really a French question, but how do you type a dash to get a "your answer matched mine" in the writing exercises? Even if I write exactly the same as the model answer, if the phrase begins with a dash the computer doesn't credit me with getting it right. Is it something to do with the number of spaces before or after? Or is there a type of dash I'm not using?
Frustrating as I challenge myself to get 3 or 4 "matches" per exercise, but this means half of my attempts have no chance....
How do you know when to drop the subject? (Apart from a feeling)
Such as: "Parlez plus lentement", nôtres "Parlez vous..."
I was how to rephrase "Je me souviens de votre frere" and I answered "Je me rappelle de votre frere". This was scored as incorrect, with the correct response given as "Je me rappelle votre frere". Aren't both "se rappeler de" and "se rappeler" correct?
