French language Q&A Forum

Question today was "Un jour, on _____ sur Mars."  In a previous   test, "On a ______ opinion."  The previous answer was "On a notre opinion," but today's test was said to be "On ira sur Mars."  How is one to know if the "on" refers to a singular person (on ira) or to several individuals (On a notre opinion)?  It's a bit confusing.  Please clarify.  Thanks.

Le professeur dit de ne pas courir.

Can "ne pas courir" be used as the negative imperative "Don't run !"

In a French grammar book I have it gives an example of 'vouloir que' being followed by a verb in the subjunctive which does not 'express a desire for someone else to do something,' which according to the Kwiziq lesson it should do.  

'Le réalisateur n'a pas voulu que son film sorte avant la rentrée.' (The director did not want his film to come out before September.)

Could you please advise.

Thank you.

Just commenting again :

I wasn’t phased by the speed of this dictation per say, but I missed out on a couple of words due to the liaison in spoken French and not fully understanding what was being said. If i’d thought more about the English translation i’d have got one of them. I think it’s beneficial to hear the language spoken at normal speed by a native speaker, it sharpens the ear.

Pourriez-vous donner autre exemples de cette règle?

Why do we say "J'adore la France" but "J'aime Paris" ? Why dont we need to add "le" before "Paris"? 

What’s the difference between  “je suis en train d’écouter de la musique” and “ j’écoute de la musique” ?

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi on peut dire "la robe la plus belle"?

I noticed that the recording of "deux plus deux égal quatre" has no liason after the second deux but "deux plus deux égale quatre" does. Is it just a coincidence or is there a difference because of égal/égale?  I find it difficult to know when to use liason before a vowel and when not to and can't find anything that really explains it.
