Just need a little clarification. Is the verb for "to worry" just "inquieter" or is it reflexive? (s'inquieter) If it is reflexive, how would that change the phrase, "I am a little worried" in French?
Does s’en aller take the future proche? In other words, are “je m’en vais” and “je vais m’en aller” both correct ways of saying “I am leaving”? And if so, are they completely interchangeable, or do they have different senses or nuances?
Thank you!
I am not doing the lessons in order but just looking them up for more for information in addition to what I am studying in class.
So say I am reading lesson 424 on passé composé, I have finished the 2 question quiz and then I want to go the next lesson....number 425...how do I get there?
If I type "Lesson 425" in the search box, it does not give me the option for that lesson.
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Are there verbs that don't follow the structured outline noted here - 'stem' from future simple conjugation, 'endings' from past imperfect conjugation? I think that I have not yet (early days) come across a verb that does not conjugate in the conditional in accordance with these simple 'rules' and having this clarified could/should/would make it much easier to remember. Even for irregular verbs it seems to me that if you know the imparfait and the future simple (both of which are also pretty consistent with 'endings' but not the stems) you have all you need to know the conditional.
"Courses" is plural and 'liste des courses' is the translation of shopping list in the bilingual Larousse.
Wordreference does list both - 'liste de courses' and 'liste des courses'

The french was:
Il déteste l’histoire mais il adore les maths
The choice of answers were:
He hates the story but he loves maths
He hates history but he loves maths
I chose story, but I don't understand how to know which is correct.Thanks
Hello, I was wondering if for sentences like "if she were to..., she would...," we use the tense imparfait and conditionnel présent? I also saw sentences that use the verb devoir "si elle devait faire cela..." in these kinds of sentences. Is that correct?
