This is a perfect example of vocabulary/explanation that should be given ahead of time -- I'll bet that way more than 90% got this wrong! If you do not speak French fluently, you would never think of expressing "To think that by now" is expressed as "Dire qu'à l'heure qu'il est"! Help us be better students by explaining expressions such as this!
Translate: "You made me want to love you" (its a lyric from a song). My first guess was "tu m'as fait que je veux t'aimer" but Google translated it as "tu m'as donné envie de t'aimer." I understand both, but Is my first guess wrong? And are there rules for when to use the expression "donner envie de"?
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.Bonjour,
I'm a bit confused which exactly is the gérondif/participe présent. Is it the entire en+ant verb form or simply the ant verb form--since it can exist without the en preposition [as shown in the video link and the external link].
Merci :)
