In the final sentence, I was expecting "ensemble" to be placed immediately after "lit", as reading is the thing being done together. Can someone explain why it isn't, please?
Hi
There was a test in which i use peu d'argent but the answer was shown to be un peu de
I cant understand why?
In the lesson it is said peu d'argent
Could you kindly clarify this for me?
Thanks
Please explain why the verb compléter is spelled two different ways in the future tense. Are both versions OK? Thanks.
Est-ce-que tes affaires sont dans la valise?
If want to use y in this sentence, can I say, " ils y sont"?
L'argent ne fait pas le moine. I want to translate it in English, can I say" Money does not make the monk"?
Hi, I was surprised to see that “tous mes amis ont crié” did not use “criés”. Is this because “tous mes amis” is singular (a single group)? And would “mes amis ont criés” be correct (linguistically speaking, not a group, but multiple individuals)?
Why is it "les" (sushi in general) instead of "de" (not any)? Same question later on in reverse - why is it "si vous avez de la Tiger" (some Tiger) and not "la Tiger" (Tiger beer in general)? Somehow I can understand how to use the subjunctive, but cannot master the French articles and prepositions which seem to pose the biggest challenge.
Why is this question marked incorrect in my test when the question says specifically to use "devoir." If we are to use "devoir," then the correct response is the one I gave, "devrais dût manger," not "aurais dû manger." The "J' " is incorrect if devoir is used per the instructions, as the answer should be "Je devrais dût manger."
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.
