In the test question "' We want him to become a lawyer"' translates to "' ...que il devienne avocat". Why not un avocat?
To go, come, climb down something. I don’t understand why a descendu doesn’t work for Jack climbing down the giant. The lesson seems to allow for it. Very confusing but not a phrase I’m likely to be using!
Hi, the options “assoyez-vous” & “asseyez-vous” have hyphens, but the two instances of “veuillez vous asseoir” do not have one between “veuillez” & “vous”. It looks like these are all “short reversed-form questions”, so is there a reason for this difference?
The correct grammar would be to say: None of them is.... i.e. 'none' is treated as singular and hence the use of 'is' and not 'are'. Thanks again for a fantastic French course!
1) Ce sont tous mes meubles =These are all of my furniture or All these are my furniture? 'Tous' is pronouns or adjective in this sentence?
2) Can 'All these are my furniture' be translated as 'Tous ceux sont mes meunibles'? Is 'tous' an adjective in this sentence?
3) Can 'all of you' be translated as 'vous tous', eg: 'Vous tous pouvez manger les pommes'? Is tous a pronouns in this sentence?
Thanks!!
According to a lesson, "tous" should be placed between the auxiliary verb and the past participle
