Bonjour !! It is my first time studying on line . Would you be kind to send me a study guide? How to study, what to study every day. I feel lost. Merci!!
This has happened a few times lately. For some reason the right side of the response and the “complete” button are cut off on my Ipad screen.
Dernier = final / previous (adjectives that change meaning according to position)2 of 2"La semaine dernière, Pierre a fait un gâteau." means: select ... Next week, Pierre will make a cake.Last week, Pierre made a cake. (the week before)The last week, Pierre made a cake. (the final week of that period)Why does the hint say "Note that with avoir as an auxiliary, past participles never agree with the subject of the verb?
I recently went over the lesson on cases in which the participles do agree, so maybe it should say "almost never"?
Special cases when the past participle agrees (in number & gender) when used with 'avoir' in the compound past in French (Le Passé Composé)

Can I say "téléphonons -lui"? If not, why? I thought the l'imperatif can be used for the 1re pers au pluriel ( aka nous )? I googled it but I couldn'
I am trying to understand why one needs to ad the D' in the sentence D'où venez-vous?
why not simply say : Où venez-vous? Why is the de important here?
This is the first lesson I can't work out the difference between the two structures something + "plaît à..." versus the reflexive something + "me plaisent."
Both descriptions say they are to like something, I can't work out when to use which structure. I've re-read the lesson about 3 times, so I'm looking for additional clarification..
Is "ça" never used instead of "ce" in this context? If not, why not? Is it simply idiomatic?
Why "Mon fils travaille (present tense) comme promeneur de chiens depuis quelques semaines" for has been working? and not "Mon fils a été travaillant comme promeneur de chiens quelques semaines"?
