French language Q&A Forum

"Je vais commonder des pates" is given as the correct answer.  Des is used with countable nouns.  Pasta is countable??  I suppose in theory it is, but in practice it is not.

I understand why we use the definite article for one and possessive adjective for the other buy why are they both singular?

Sorry to add to an already long thread, but I have a feeling that when using "on" as informal "we" (rather than impersonal "one") I’ve seen "nous" used as the stress pronoun, not "soi". Is that right? 

Sorry if I’m being thick, but could someone please explain what the following mean:  than"]">   as"]">   and    que"]">   at the head of each grammar explanation in the sidebar of the lesson?

Je peux dire ( Ferme le robiner ! )?

Merci beaucoup

your answer "ce qui me plait le plus dans ce métier"

should it not be "ce qui me plais le plus dans ce métier" ?

I don't have the best ears, but I do not hear beaucoup after t-shirt.  I hear "au contre" instead.

When to use one of the other

Hello, I am wondering why to use "c´est" instead of "elle est" to translate "she is an angel". Doesn't "c´est" mean "it is", used to describe an object? Can you use "c´est" about a person and why is it better than simply saying "elle est"?
