Hi,
Not related specifically to the direct subject of this lesson, but I'm interested in the grammar in the sentence "Vous comparaissez devant le tribunal pour conduite..." I would have used "pour conduire...". Is this covered in a lesson somewhere?
Thanks.
Please reconsider level of execise. I would suggest rather it is a B2 level because it is considerably easier than the other C1 execises
Bonjour, pourquoi dans la phrase “Allain s’attend à être licencié”, c’est qu’on manque le “ce que” ?
is this the same for all future tenses?
for example jouer - becomes je jouerai so you dont pronounce the e after this i either?
Why is a sales ASSISTANT, referred to as vendeur? A salesperson ( un vendeur) is different than a subordinate salesperson assistant. I used the qualifying adjective and it was marked wrong.
Hello!
I am wondering why there is a '-t-' in the sentence "Où va-t-on mettre le sapin ?" Is this because it is using the reflexive version of the verb mettre? If so why do we use the relflexive mettre in this instance? Thank you.
Hi where can get some exercises on this. Also is there a lesson on it? I searched but didn't find any
“On vous appellera quand on arrive” would be considered an acceptable, if casual sentence, as opposed to “on vous appellera quand on arrivera” which is a bit clunky, no?
Re Daniel E’s post and responses below
I’m finding the use of the subjunctive past for future actions unexpectedly tricky, I think because the English "I need to leave by nine" or "they need us to arrive", already includes the idea of a completed future action (you can’t leave without having left or arrive without having arrived!)
Is the subjunctive present ever an option in this type of sentence or is the subjunctive past mandated?
