French language Q&A Forum

I am not sure if this is perhaps different with American English but as someone from the UK this sounds like Anne and Antoine are in the process of going somewhere to walk their dog e.g. in their car driving to a forest.  It does not imply that they are in the process of actually walking their dog.  I agree that there is a subtlety specifically with the question which is that the phrase includes "with their dog" but the "are going for" implies that they are not actually yet walking their dog but intend to go for a walk with their dog.  For instance if I were to say "I am going shopping to buy some food" it means that I am not actually in the process of doing the shopping.  Can you please clarify if "se promènent" is the actual current act of doing something or describing the intention to do the act?

Hello, today while watching the news I picked up the sentence:

on a isolé les murs au cas où nous devions rester longtemps.

I wonder why "devrait" is not used in this case.

And can we use e.g. /dans le cas où + sentence/ instead of /au cas où + sentence/ ?

Merci.

Why I was wrong with imparfait?

what does  'je me ferais dorer la pilule' mean?

I tried google translate, DeepL Translate and bing translate, all gave me something about 'brown the pill', which just doesn't make sense. I am guessing, it means sunbathing. 

How would one say ‘This week, I work from Tuesday to Thursday?’ (an exception). Would this be any different from how you would say that in general ‘I work from Tuesdays to Thursdays’? Thanks

The trouble with these exercises, even though you can learn new ways of saying things, don't really recognise that as long as people understand you then you can be a bit more relaxed. In a few examples you used words that I don't have at hand but I had words with similar meanings. I guess that's why these programs don't suit everyone. 

Please how do you use n'aime..

this is an amazing essay thank you
