Are the following 2 phrases both correct: Une aventure à laquelle elle ne pouvait pas résister .....and: une aventure qu'elle n'y pouvait pas résister?
"Le seul qui a les yeux le ciel bleue qui n'y a pas dehors." What does this phrase mean?
Position of adverbs.
In a multiple choice question, I was presented with "plus tard" at the beginning of a sentence.
"Plus tard, elle te parlera."
This lesson does not teach this, or did I miss something?
Sidenote...to my ear this sentence sounded correct...I had selected it then checked the lesson, when I did not see this particular construction discussed I reversed my decision. I can hear myself saying "she will talk to you later" in French this way.
I believe the je form of the conditional of préférer is je préférerais, not je préfèrerais as in the text. Am I correct ?
shouldn't it be "de nouvelles technologies"? no s if an adjective comes before noun?
In the text the English phrase "It is going to be great" is rendered in the proximate future as "ça va être sympa".
I understand why this is correct, but I'm wondering would French people ever use the simple future tense here instead? Something like "ça sera sympa"?
Thanks,
Stuart
Question: Vous _______ le bus arrive.
My answer: Vous attendez le bus arrive.
I just don't understand why it's wrong.
The correct answer is:
Vous attendez que le bus arrive.
I used conte in my translation rather than the given "histoire," is there a difference between the two or are they completely interchangeable?
J'ai envie d'une nouvelle voiture" means: select ... I need a new car... envy his new car.. want a new car.. they want “I want a new car”..
shouldn’t it be “I would like”?.. would not I want be je veux?
