If On is used to say we as a group with which you're familiar with and are part of, does that mean saying it for other groups or just random groups of people means it becomes "One Or People" ? And do French speakers receive it as so ?
It says:
You use à when describing going to or being in a city.
And you use de to indicate being, coming or returning from a city.
So then how do you decide if you want to express being in a city since you use both de and à?
I think there is a mistake made regarding 'ces 'which is translated as those and not these.
Une mère dit a son fils "Qu'est-ce qui t’intéresse beaucoup?"
Une mère dit a son fils ce qui l’intéresse beaucoup or Une mère dit a son fils ce qui lui intéresse beaucoup.
Please clarify. TIA.
in this sentence: " J'ai acheté de nouveaux bols et de nouvelles assiettes " why use DE nouveaux bols.......... insteet of DES nouveaux .......
The audio example for « il geint » doesn’t sound like the other -eint verbs (eg il peint), it’s more like "jean". Does the initial g alter the pronunciation?
Pourquoi on utilise comme elle ne doit pas sortir. Pourquoi pas ainsi que où pour que ?
In the quiz there's a sentence that reads:
Christophe finissait son déjeuner quand les autres sont arrivés.
The English translation says
Christopher was finishing his breakfast when the others arrived.
The quiz says déjeuner not petit-déjeuner.
Could you have 'ça' in this sentence as an alternative to 'ce' ?
