Why I was wrong with imparfait?
Est-ce que le verbe gambader utilise l'objet indirecte? (qui lui gambadait) Merci
Why is the passé composé used here: "Depuis que je t'ai rencontré.." when the rule says you use "depuis que + l'indicatif" --very confusing and frustrating without an explanation.
How do you decide when to use "du monde entier" vs. "mondiaux" vs. "a travers le monde" ?
I opted for "avoir besoin de" here, but "dois" was preferred. That's okay. But I had to put a "de" and "le" together. I did not change it to "du." Which is correct. I appreciate your response.
I don't understand why these are both correct, but one's in the passe compose and the other is in the imparfait.
En 2004, j'avais de l'argent.
In 2004, I had money.
En 1815, Napoléon a perdu la bataille de Waterloo.
In 1815, Napoleon lost the battle of Waterloo.
Is it because Napoleon only lost the battle one time, but we can assume I had money for the whole of 2004.
Bonjour ! Can you explain me how to use tiret (-) in writing numbers ? Merci !
In "I went online to find tapas recipes" shouldn't the verb for find be chercher rather than (or at least as well as) trouver?
Why was my answer: "Je vais parler sans que vous m'interrompions." The answer you were looking for was: " Je vais parler sans que tu m'interrompes." It was not specified in the question whether to use tu or vous.
