Are there any other times apart from the negative (saying you don’t have any), when de is used eg d’huile, de pan. I know we say de also before plural nouns with an adjectives preceding the noun
Salut a tous.
Ma question concerne l'utilisation du pronom "dont" ici. La phrase ci-dessus peut traduire comme soit "The books I think of are remarkable" soit "the books i'm thinking about are remarkable." étant donné que penser peut prendre la préposition 'de', cette dernière formulation permet l'utilisation de "dont", n'est-ce pas ? S'il vous plaît donnez votre avis. Merci en avance.
Vois ici: De qui/dont/duquel = of/about whom, of/about which - with prepositional verbs with "de" (French Relative Pronouns)
Why is it "en weekend" instead of "un weekend"? Surely,the article is called for rather than the preposition. Thanks.
I was going to choose the right answer when I second guessed myself because of the "de". How would you say "I'm watching from beautiful hills"? What would "Je regarde à les belles collines" translate into, or is this sentence completely incorrect?
Hello folks! I hope someone can enlight me
why does it say '' Ou' tu vas?'' instead of '' Ou' vas tu?''. Shouldn't we inverse the sentence?
A little unclear re the use of the above. What is the difference, if any, between the following ?:
J'ai peu d'amis and J'ai quelques amis
Why is it "la plus parlée *au* monde"? The relevant lesson says to use "de": Forming the superlative of French adjectives in complex cases
I believe that “I arrived the day he left” refers to a non-specific timeframe and therefore should use the feminine form, but it was marked wrong on my test and the masculine “la jour” was said to be correct instead. Can someone explain to me why this would be the case, or if it’s an error?
