I notice that all of the examples here have cues in them to indicate repetitive action. What if the sentence does not contain such cues? Should it be interpreted as continuous action or repetitive action?
e.g. Je faisais du sport.
Without any cues would that mean “I was playing sports” or “I used to play sports” or is it equally ambiguous?
What I like most is your smile
However would it not be: What I like most it is your smile
Why is c'est -> is
It should be
c'est -> it is
Why is « Quelle une jolie caractère » not alternative please?
How is "it" "that" this these and those written and pronounced in French?
did i read correctly somewhere that this changed in the 1990's??? that before it was j'envoyerai but now it must be envoierai?
On the quiz, the correct answer to the imperative form of donner for tu is marked as "donne", not "donnes". Am I missing something or is it supposed to be "donne-moi"?
I think it is very discouraging and disappointing for those who click on the first reading or listening exercise of A1 level, and then they see this passage.
I’ve noticed that ‘violet’ changes with gender and number too, despite being named after a real thing, like orange and rose.
Is this correct?
If faire du cheval means "I'm horseback riding", who would one say "I am taking horseback riding lessons"?
Une nouvelle leçon ! je l’aime bien. J'ai une question. Est-ce possible de changer l’ordre de mots dans une telle façon ? Au lieu de dire « qui dort le moins », on peut dire « qui le moins dort « ? J’ai constaté que l’ordre de mots dans les cas similaires est parfois l’inverse que l’anglais. Je ne sais pas si c’est possible dans ce cas. Merci d’avance et bonne journée.
