This was the question:
"Tu as les billets ? Oui, je les ai tous" means:From a drop-down multiple choice, I answered that it meant "I have everything" but I wasn't sure that was correct because of the "les"
The correct answer was, "I have all of them," but couldn't that be written as, "J'en ai tous?" That's where I got confused.
Si je changeais maintenant here you have used imparfait can I use passé composé here
You managed to finish your exercise.HINT: Conjugate arriver (to manage) using le Passé Composé (conversational past)
The answer given is ‘es arrivé’. So, even when ‘arriver’ means ‘to manage’ rather than ‘to arrive’, & therefore doesn’t actually have anything to do with movement or coming & going, its auxiliary is still être rather than avoir?
Are there any further such instances we should bear in mind?
Thank you.
For Indiana Jones lived through extraordinary adventures
I used "a vécu par" for "lived through". Is this incorrect?
Can anyone refer me to the lesson as to why "je me suis brossé les dents" brossé has no extra e and the speaker is a woman. Has to do with "les dents" being the direct object, I think, but would love to read the lesson.
Can you also use ‘je ne pouvais pas dormir’ - if not why please..
Thanks
Liz
What word would we use in a more formal, or written context?
Salut a tous
If aux dents is plural how can it be translated as I have a toothache?
Merci
