The quiz asked me to find correctly placed adjectives and I thought colors are supposed to go after the noun? Unless there is a exception here i missed.
Over the last few days I have powered through over all the A0 topics in order to get them out of the way and get to study A1 or better lessons,yet for some reason it feels like I am on a loop right now, where all the lessons on my study plan are A0 ones even though all of them are 100%'d already, I even got the award for achieving a 100% completion on a level. Is there any way to get Kwiziq to stop giving me these lessons and get it to give me A1 ones ?
Hi!
I don't want the tips that appear in the fill-out-the-blanks exerceises. Can I choose to turn them off?
Thanks for any help! :)
In a search to demystify the difference between savoir and connaître, I stumbled upon an article earlier that suggested something along the lines of "use connaître when you've had prior experience with something" with one of the examples being "vous connaissez [name of place]?" meaning have you been to [name of place]? instead of asking whether the person is aware of the existence of said place. The second example was "Je connais Brad Pitt"; a statement that implies that one has met Brad Pitt before rather than plainly saying that they know of the existence of him. Since this lesson hasn't mentioned anything regarding what I've said above, can anyone enlighten me on this matter?
Is it a rule that être + adjective is always followed by the preposition de? Or can it be followed by à sometimes?
Although, the meaning of "bien avoir" can be surmised from the context, I still wanted to do some research. I was unable to find any information in Collins Dictionary, LaRousse or even Reverso.
I take it, "Tu m'as bien eu !" to mean something like, "You really fooled me!"
Does anyone have any insight into this particular phrase?
Merci a tous ! This was a fun little story.
"Là, une multitude d'étals de poissons fraîchement pêchés aiguisaient l'appétit des passants"
I don't understand the plural here: Isn't it "Une multitude d'étals" - multitude being singular - which is the subject of the verb - rather than "D'étals" themselves, which would be plural.
I'm trying to devine whether there is some rule at work here here, or whether it's pretty much optional.
For this lesson example, there is no preposition here (transitive), yet être is still used as the auxiliary? Doesn't this contradict the rule?
