Hi I was wondering when looking over the Qu'est - ce que c'est is it correct to always use that since it would be more formal? Or can you use c'est quoi when talking to a friend?

Merci

Nicole

Demi-pension

What does this term mean in the context of a hotel and restaurant ? BTW, thanks for another challenging C1. I cannot yet imagine understanding all of this without the possibility of repetition. Still plodding along with a score of 57/80 with considerable repetition required.

Salut, If it is correct to say, Je suis en train de lire le journal, why can't one say, "Mes oncles sont en train de peler des pommes de terre dans la cuisine." ?

Thank you

Why is 'rester' used in this example (rather than future of s'asseoir) and why is the subjunctive of avoir used rather than subjunctive of finir?
How would you say "Ben will sit at that desk until after he's finished his homework." ?Ben restera assis à ce bureau jusqu'à ce qu'il ait fini ses devoirs.Ben restera assis à ce bureau jusqu'à ce qu'il finisse ses devoirs.

Thank you

Thank you, Cécile. I must have overlooked that in the alternative possibilities! Évidemment is one of my favorite words! Not sure why!

Regards,
