What is the correct order to ask questions in French?
I mean, can we put all of the words of interrogation like (quand qui que) in different places like we do with ou` and the different places can we put the subject and the verb?
for example : ou`te es ?_ou` es tu? - tu es ou`?
I translated this exercise perfectly but scored zero. That was I misunderstood and found the exercise difficult to interpret.
Why is "il lui faut de l'aide" - he / she needs some help and "il te faut de l'aide" - you must help? I am getting very confused with this expression!
The heading is wrong. It should be: Tutoyer 'ou' Vouvoyer?. 'ou' in place of 'or' because that is a french heading with English in the second line.
Why is ‘en avance’ preferred over ‘à l’avance’ in the sentence ‘Heureusement qu'on n'avait pas acheté les places en avance !´ I am thinking of the exercise about the catacombs visit where ´Cédric had even called them beforehand´ is translated ´Cédric les a même appelés à l’avance - which is surely the same idea?
If reflexive verbs always use the auxiliary verb 'etre', why is it 'Quand elle m'a embrassé' and not 'Quand elle m'est embrassé'
