The question is:We don't hate that she is therelà. Why is Nous ne haïssons qu'elle soit là.
Is it simply the case that "Comment il se fait que..." is not idiomatic? Or do French people sometimes say it (rightly or wrongly)?
Can i say ‘vous allez devoir trouver’ ?
"J'en ai vu une autre hier qui avait un grenier et un sous-sol, ce qui serait parfait..." I thought of this as BOTH attic and basement being useful for storage and used third person plural, "seraient." Why wasn't this correct?
The sentence :
Je suis aussi allé acheter une nouvelle bibliothèque que j’ai passé plus de deux heures à monter.
The hint given was ‘la bibliothèque’.
I took this to mean that passé should agree with bibliothèque and wrote passée.
I was using the rule for the ‘case of subordinate clauses with que’. Why am I wrong here?
Hi,
I was wondering. My friend had asked me a question How is your room? Would I still use elle est since it is specific when i respond to her?

I would like a list of adjectives that change their meaning when placed before or after nouns
In the first sentence, "Depuis que je suis petite fille, j'ai toujours adoré m'asseoir" why is the first half in present tense, and the second half passé composé?
Also, for the sentence, "les gracieuses ballerines qui se produisaient à l'Opéra," is "jouer" not an acceptable translation for perform?
Bonjour :)
In this statement: If there is a pronoun before the infinitive, ne pas precedes it.
Which pronoun are we talking about here? Direct or Indirect? The examples above exhibit both, so I'm a bit confused.
Merci :)
