French language Q&A Forum

This mnemonic device refers to verbs taking etre in the passe compose. What verb does each letter indicate?

The correct kwiz answers indicate "Bien sûr qu'on se déteste!" translates to both "Of course we hate each other!" and "Of course we hate ourselves!"

These English translations have different meanings -- i.e., "I hate you and you hate me" versus "I hate myself and you hate yourself."

My question:  does the French sentence also imply these two distinctly different meanings?

We know that “on” has been explained to mean “one” (in general terms) just like in English, in which case in the sentence above it would mean “no one is allowed to park here, generally”. So I am confused by the fact that, the answer to the multiple choice questions did not include the above option as a valid answer :(

Elle va acheter le poisson aujourd'hui du marché. Merci beaucoup.

Is this also used if you want to use "before I'd do that" in a sense of "I'd never do that". I don't know if this makes sense, I mean like "I'd die before I'd do that". Or would that be a hypothetical clause?

If I am talking about clothing that I own, but am not currently wearing, do I still use the definite article?

For example “La veste est sur le canapé” or “Ma veste est sur le canapé” ?

Shouldn't this be changed to the below to avoid any confusion?

Avoir [nombre] ans = To have [number] years
