Here, it should be 'I feel like having an ice cream' in English, else the sentence is taking a different meaning
Bonjour,
Why is it "Envoie-la-vous" not "Envoie-vous-la?" Aren't me/te/nous/vous always placed before le/la/les? Merci.
I do not understand why in the above sentence écrit (pp of écrire?) has an 'extra' e. I understand this only applies to être verbs + avoir if object preceeds verb?

The title holds the right answer. If I was speaking to a native French speaker and spoke this wrong answer - Si tu vas ou pas, ça ne change rien - would the French speaker understand but think to him/herself “tsk tsk such poor grammar”, or would my selection be incomprehensible? Actually, I have a similar question - two birds, one stone - regarding the use of ‘passé simple’ as opposed to ‘passé composé’: is there a simple rule which tells one which is the appropriate choice when?
Not a question, but sounds like a great day I'd like to do merci beaucoup :)
Merci pour les nouveaux exercices d’écoute !
My husband, who is French, is adamant that 'avoir' is not used with apparu. Is it that this is a regional usage (eg Quebec v France or even South of France v Paris where he's from)? Or is it just uncommon? Otherwise, like many a native speaker, he could simply be mistaken!
Dan la négation, par exemple: je n’aime pas d’escargots. De is under 0 number, why escargots is using plural? Affirmative answer: j’aime des escargots have quantities therefore is understandable to use pluriel.
' never going to bed angry' should be surely present tense as they are still doing it?
