The sound is not clear.  I cannot follow the song.

Hi, for “I'd rather be a witch!” = “Je préfèrerais être une sorcière !”. Should the spelling be “préférerais”?

Also, just to let you know, the audio for “ dont je me servirais dans des buts plus ou moins néfastes...” needs correcting.

Bonjour,

Was wondering about the word frais since it means fresh. I thought that fresh fruit would be similar to saying l'enfant est frais. Or would I be wrong in my following examples. 

Le fruit est frais

The fruit is fresh

L'enfant est frais

Can I also say

Le frais Enfant

The fresh kid

Thanks

Nicole

Salut,

For the sentence "et les jeudi et vendredi, j'avais mes cours de danse moderne," my "et" is being red-lined and replaced with the English "and" in blue. Not sure if others are experiencing the same problem. Kinda threw me for a loop. Haha.

Je lirai jusqu'à ce que je sois trop fatiguée. Why is fatiguee feminine. Do you know something about the reader that we don't, or am i missing something?

I have the same question that several other learners have asked. About the placement of "tard, plus tard, tot, plus tot, etc" at the beginning as well as the end of the sentence. I did the same thing as Michael. I had selected the option using "plus tard" at the beginning of the sentence, but then deleted it after reviewing the lesson.

Here is what the lesson states. (There is no mention of these adverbs being placed at the beginning of the sentence):

"Adverbs of place and certain adverbs of time usually FOLLOW the past participle: 

e.g. tard, tôt,... and some adverbs ending in -ment

Elle a compris facilement.She understood easily."

May I suggest that you give some examples with them at the beginning of a sentence? It would be very helpful.

Apparaître follows the same pattern as connaître for the passé composé, (aître -> u), so not an exception. See -  https://conjugator.reverso.net/conjugation-rules-model-french/model-conna%C3%AEtre.html
