Your translation of 'Le monde aurait bien besoin de quelq'un...' sounds to me more like 'The world really needs someone..' rather than the stated 'The world could really use someone. What do you think of 'Le monde pourrait bien utiliser quelq'un...'

Jonathan, lui, rentre en CP

Why does "CP" correspond to "first grade"? How are French grade levels named?

Is there a problem with the English prompt?

The sentence asks how one would translate: "If she could fly, she would go to the moon." ?

My sense is that this is misleading because "if she could fly" is conditional not past continuous. Shouldn't it read "If she flew, she would go to the moon" to avoid confusion?

Thanks, Kalpana

Tenses with "bien que"Tu es sortie bien que je ne sois pas d'accord.

Am struggling to understand why the answer uses the present subjunctive of etre.

Thanks for any help!

Cette cuisine est haute.This kitchen is high? This doesn't sound like it makes any sense in English or French. Is this something anyone would actually say in French?

Indicative or subjunctive?

I am looking at this sentence - 'Je passerais beaucoup de temps à prendre soin de lui, en lui parlant, le caressant, lui donnant des friandises - après m'être assuré qu'elles sont adaptées à ses besoins bien sûr !' - and thinking that the verb with 'adaptées' would naturally go into the subjunctive ('soient adaptées'), not the indicative, because the whole scenario is speculative rather than real. Or does this kind of hypothetical writing not normally call for the subjunctive?

Lawless french lesson on Reflexive pronouns

Hey,

I am. not sure if its ok to post this here. But I noticed that in the lesson on reflexive pronouns.. it says -en nous endoromons, nous (for present participle)

Shouldn't it be -En nous endormant, nous..... What am I missing?

Pourquoi le present?

Salut, pouvez-vous m'expliquer le temps du verbe dans cette phrase:

Je n'avais jamais boursicoté avant que Belinda ne suggère que je tente le coup et bien que je sois encore en train d'apprendre les ficelles..."

Pourquoi est le present utilisé?

Merci !
