Hello,
I have a question. I understand how to use the inverted question when you have a vowel -t . But my question is is there an easy way to understand when to use either the Estimate ce- que or the inverted?
Thank you
Nicole
From the answers I see to this question in this discussion, we are expected to look through something like 1200 verb conjugations to find which ones fit this category. Even on the Lawless site for Irregular ir verbs, it lists the irregular ir verbs, but only one that changes in the future to an er verb conjugation. Where can one get a simple list of the ir verbs that change to er verb conjugations in the future tense?
Hi All,
I've noticed the comma is used after the object in half of the examples given. Does it matter at all or this is volontaire?
Merci en avance
Salut, dans vos premiers indices, pourquoi donnez-vous "Bonne chance" = "good luck," quand le meilleure reponse est "la bonne fortune"?: Merci.

Is J'etais = Je fus? i am confused because both mean "I was"
Hello,
I was doing some French exercises and I encountered this sentence: c'est le livre dont la lecture je te conseille" (my job was just to select a pronoun here). Anyway I thought it should be: c'est le livre dont je te conseille la lecture. It confused me, which one is correct ?
The English text 'she lay daydreaming for hours' is translated 'elle restait allongée à rêvasser pendant des heures'.
Does this use of an 'à + infinitive' construction imply some element of purpose (she lay down to daydream) or can it really be used simply to imply simultaneous activity? For example, could you say 'je fait le repassage à écouter la radio...'?
