As stated in the lesson if you are emphasizing something in the past "en train de" can be used. Therefore if you are emphasizing "Henri was having a nap when his boss came in "
"Henri était en train de faire une sieste ..." should be acceptable
Hi as I am learning about this expression I'm trying to find an audio clip with just this expression to practice saying it by itself but, I can not find it.
Thank you
Nicole
I can’t find how to reference multiple days together, is there an example?
“On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I get up at 6.” which of the following is correct?
Le lundi, mercredi et vendredi je me lève à six heures
or
Les lundi, mercredi et vendredi je me lève à six heures
or
Le lundi, le mercredi et le vendredi je me lève à six heures
Thanks
Jon
This is touched on in the discussion, but I wonder if you can clarify which expressions can be used in the future too? Obviously hier and demain cannot. I realise the first paragraph does specify "past point of view" but there doesn’t seem to be a future equivalent lesson. Thanks, and I’m sorry to add to an already long thread!
I wrote 'rencontrerez' for the future of the verb rencontre, & I got it right in the fill-in-the-blank exercise Horoscope de l'année (Le Futur); however, it doesn't seem to fit into the pattern for either regular -er and -ir verbs in the future or -re and -dre verbs in the future, and it directed me to this page, so I'm confused.
Hello: Please, could someone tell me the difference in usage between "ou" and "où." I'm tripped up once again by the diacritical marks.
Thank you in advance to all kind and patient souls.
Cheers!

Hi
Why is it 'aux prix' and not 'au prix'. Isn't prix singular?
Thanks
