French language Q&A Forum

comme j'aime les chats, j'ai particulièrement apprécié cet exercice. au moment où j'écris, mon chat dort au soleil sur son lit, où elle restera jusqu'à ce qu'elle ait faim ou qu'elle veuille être caressée :)

Judging by the comments below and my own experience of this lesson i think it could still be tweaked to improve it.  It think it would be helpful to: 

* add - write out - relevant (new to some) vocabulary for decimals, commas and currencies

* emphasise how the rules for writing numbers in French are the same (or different) when used for currencies vs other contexts

* provide and describe a few more complex examples, including the outliers (eg uncommon use of a decimal point in French), with at least one example of a French number which translates to three or more decimal points in English. The latter would be very useful because it highlights how our Eng/French translation brain can get confused (evident in these discussions) because it looks identical to the English version of numbers in the thousands.  

Hi,

I was wondering with the pronunciation of the days of the week am I right that the J sounds like a Z in the audio? Do all J's have that same sound?

Thanks

Excusez moi madame? I do not know how to conjugate the verb Entre

I noticed that an example given above " Elles ne l'ont fait expres" means They didnt do it on purpose. Im wondering why it isnt Elles n'en ont pas fait expres. Doesn't en replace phrases after de? 

When would you use ressentir instead of se sentir? 

There should have been included in the vocabulary list additional words including

the Halloween characters. These are words that are not part of daily speech.

Even though the verb se moquer is reflexive, why don't you say me moquer if someone is mocking me, instead of se moquer as one test question has it?

I think in informal conversations we say like -

Il est pas jeune 

instead of the more formal and more 'grammatically correct' one:

Il n'est pas jeune!

Is it correct !? Responde Sil vous Plait!
