Isn't "après-midi" masculine, and if so should it not be:
cet après-midi sera consacré
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.
Should je suis toujours anxieux also be an accepted answer compared to je suis toujours nerveux? Or perhaps anxieux is considered more a medical condition and too strong in this context?
rejoindre is an infinitive. Shouldn't it be rejoignons or rejoindrons?
Hello
I have often noticed that sentences in French begin with 'Et'. Is this considered 'good' French, as in English it would be considered very poor grammar?
Furthermore, I have often noticed the use of a comma before 'et'. Once again, in English this would be considered poor grammar. Is this optional or required in French?
I look forward to your response.
Thank you for your fantastic lessons!
Somehow I lost the test. But, you said that question number three was partially right because I didn't put "je" before "te" and my answer. But as I saw it the "je" was already printed so there was no need for me to repeat it. Am I right or wrong?
The last time, 13h15, doesn't seem to fit, unless it is the next day. Am I missing something?
