Ma soeur n'aime personne = My sister likes nobody.
Can't this also mean My sister loves nobody, or how do you express the idea of loving someone/no-one?
Nous aurions pu choisir un grand chat ou pas?
I was taught that, in addition to "Elle croit que c'est une mauvaise blague," "She (thinks it/ believes it to be) a bad joke" can also be written "Elle croit à une mauvaise blague." A visit to context.reverso seems to bear this out, whereas this lesson says that "que" is always required. Is this lesson perhaps missing a note of exception, or am I misinformed?
"J'ai rencontré ________. quelqu'un"
Greetings! Just a comment on the content of the article: Those who are ethically opposed to eating foie gras, if they are consistent in the application of those ethics, will probably also be ethically opposed to killing and eating saumon! ;-)
I got the following question wrong because I didn't know what 'South America' was in French. Clicking on the 'Learn and Discuss' button lead me to this lesson, where South America is not mentioned. In fact, the 2 links presented in this lesson for learning more also don't contain a list of continents. It's only in the 2nd link of this lesson (En/au/aux = In/to with countries and continents (French Prepositions)), that it mentions South America in an example, rather than as part of the main lesson. Perhaps this lesson should contain a list of continents if it's going to be linked to by the below question:
________ est un vaste continent. South America is a vast continent.In the second to last sentence, the audio sounds like you've added the word "slash" right after the word "ça." This is not in the text I see here. I did the rest about a week ago - and don't recall if it was there or not! What does it mean? And how is it spelled?
