Pourquoi "il avait répété dans sa tête" et pas "il avait répété dans la tête"?
Hi,
Is this an expression about ones hair lightening in the sun? Or is it about getting tanned?
Thanks
Why not say, Elle et ma sour? (It is 'specific').
I used the first person plural form of the verb for two reasons. Because the explanatory sentence used "we", not "one" or "people", and because although we may well know that everyone in our group is dying to meet her, we certainly cannot know that about the general public.
Why was this wrong?
Why would saying "Je suis faim" be incorrect, but "J'ai faim" is correct? aren't these both correct to say "I am hungry"?
'I share my apartment with five people, including one girl.'
I realise the lesson is about 'dont', but could one use 'compris' or 'y compris' instead of dont? If so, which, and would compris need an e because the girl is feminine?
Bonjour ! One of the A2 level exercises asks which would be the correct beginning for the phrase « [X] a changé entre nous ? » and I'm having a hard time figuring out why the only acceptable answer here is the one with the full « qui ». I thought in front of the vowels we were supposed to make an elision in order to ease the pronunciation. Could you please help? Merci !
I don't see why this is plus que parfait. This refers to an action completed in the past. Seems to me "je te l'ai dit" would serve just as well or better.
If talking about an electric car (fem) why wouldn't I say : c'est moins bruyantE? Correction says bruyant.
