If talking about an electric car (fem) why wouldn't I say : c'est moins bruyantE? Correction says bruyant.
Let me know if this is correct: in the passé composé, the past participle agrees with the direct object? The answer was "Tu les as vues" - the direct object was feminine plural - thus the -es to the past participle "vu." I experimented with Google translate, and this seems to be the rule but I haven't found it on Progress with Lawless French, so I wanted to double check.
Hello,
Is there's a difference between "pour avoir fait" and "ayant fait"? If yes, when does one use which?
Thanks!
Jo
I’m wondering how you express next/the next/last/the last for the four seasons? Was unable to find an example on the site.
While I understand that the phrase: “Où mets-je mes chaussures d'habitude ?” is technically correct for the exersise, I am having a hard time mentally processing when I would ever use first-person inversion. To me, it sounds incredibly snooty and stuck up and something I would never want to suggest that I am.
Is there a situation I would be inclined to use the first person inversion for asking a question, and why?
I am guessing that the verb "mettre" was chosen over "porter" because the latter had already been used twice; otherwise "porter" would have been an acceptable choice in "...toutes mes tenues de soirée en même temps. " Am I right?
'When it's not cold I sleep outside'. Dehors is suggested before it comes up in the English so if one adds it to the translation prior to it appearing, it becomes an error. The suggestion needs to come after 'when it's not cold'.
