Hi all,
Why would one say "il me reste des croissants" when "croissants" is a plural word and "il me reste" is a singular phrase? Is this just an expression?
Could you please explain the difference in meaning between ajoute and rajoute, according to Collins On Line Dictionary they both mean the same thing. Here are the 2 answers from the exercise: -
À la fin, elle rajoute de la cannelle.' 'A la fin, elle ajoute de la cannelle.'
ALSO in the two sentences, one of them has A and the other has À. Is this an error? If not please explain why both are correct.
My Barron's French Verbs defines s'amuser as: to have a good time, to amuse oneself, to enjoy oneself. Although I know "Amélie s'amuser au cirque" implies she is having fun, you gave as a possible answer also "is amusing herself". Since you guys a normally very exact in what you allow as correct in your tests, why do you now not accept a technically more correct answer?
