French language Q&A Forum

I am unable to see why I should have scored only 5 out of 60 in this exercise, unless you expect me to guess where full stops, commas and exclamation marks go.  This is impossible to know when only short excerpts are given by actors with slow, flat voices!

In the exercise the word favori is given as the answer when in the dictation it is prefere, with the accents I am unable to make my PC insert. Correct yourself please and my score,

I momentarily thought i had spotted a mistake: 'Chuck Berry avait vraiment le rythm dans la peau' (peau = skin), but apparently it's a french idiom, we say 'in his blood', the french say 'in his skin'. I was momentarily confused by it:

Hi,

Can I say like below also insted of "Patrick va mal en ce moment."

Patrick sent mal en ce moment. (Patrick is feeling bad right now )

It would be a closer translation I think to say "goes with" in English. As English uses "to go" in the exact same way as french. E.g., "that shirt goes with my sister", is a closer translation than "that shirt suits my sister". In my opinion, as it maintains the "to go with" lineage in its meaning. 

I was wondering if "je préfère rester dedans" would be an acceptable response?

why do you say 'jeter un coup d'oeil rapide'? Doesn't coup d'oeil already imply a quick look ?
