When I took French in school I remember there being a confusion with leur and leurs around sentences such as "the men went to their cars" where there was a difference between each man going to his own individual car versus the cars being collectively owned by the group of men.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Or is it just "les hommes sont allés à leurs voitures" for both?
Salut! Would “trop” be accepted instead of “si” in the sentences. I used it in both the sentences in the passage but they were corrected to “si”. Is there a difference? Thank you
Why does sortis have an "s" - I understand that être verbs will agree with subject but this is "on" - I did not think that this was treated at plural "nous"
Could the phrase "I admire how he managed to ..." be translated using "comment" rather than "comme"?
The pronunciation I'm hearing in the audio sounds like ". . . ce que t'way le voir" for " . . . ce que tu ailles le voir."
Is this actual French pronunciation or a bad recording?
For the verb "finir", what is the difference between saying "j'ai fini" and "je fini"? Would the latter be used when you are referring to something specific later in the sentence?
Hi,
This sentence has not been fully recorded, it is missing below.
"parrainage", est une procédure
And, where is the word "hold" in this translation:
Although some elected officials concurrently hold several offices,
Bien que certains élus de la République cumulent plusieurs mandats,
thank you
