French language Q&A Forum

wow this story is so intresting

on every site I've looked at, it says its 'dire à' and not 'dire de' to 'tell sb to do st' ? is this an error ?

Is it simply the case that "Comment il se fait que..." is not idiomatic? Or do French people sometimes say it (rightly or wrongly)?

In the above question, the answer in the test shows “lui” but shouldn’t it be l’ since the verb starts with vowel?

Je comprends pas la phrase ´faire doublon’. Mais je comprends parfaitement le mot doublon. Merci.

Hi,

We can't hear "Apportez un pique-nique."

I found this exercise too easy to be a B2 level.

Hello.
The English sentence is: I'd never seen that, it was like in a horror movie!

I must have missed the rule that explains the use of conditional past in French. Can you enlighten me please.

Thanks.

I got the question Mathilde a rentré la voiture avant qu'il ne pleuve. wrong because I chose "Mathilde returned the car..." as the "correct" answer was "Mathilde put away the car..." But in English, saying you put away a car sounds like you put a small object away. Since a car is so big, you would return it to its proper destination, which is why I chose this answer. I feel that both these answers could technically be correct.
