Is that wrong? Perhaps you can't have two infinitives together? I thought faire des was the way to express going shopping.
Why is it à acheter?
I would say "de acheter". Is this also okay?
Hi Aurélie,
I notice a few people have asked the same question about the sentence - Tu lui as parlé' being translated as 'You talked to her' but parlé not agreeing with a feminine ‘lui’. You have said that the past participle doesn’t agree with an indirect object pronoun, and refer people to the advanced lesson: Special cases where the past participle agrees... However that lesson only talks about direct object pronouns and doesn’t actually say that the past participle doesn’t agree with an indirect object pronouns. I wondered if - for completeness and clarity - you could add that to the lesson, if it is not covered elsewhere. Many thanks.
I met this sentence: Tu y vas samedi? - J'y vais tous les samedis.
Could it also be: J'y vais le samedi?
Merci d'avance
I don’t understand why “Je me suis bien amusée.” adds the “e” for the feminine subject but “Je me suis lavé les dents.” does not when both speakers are female.
e.g.) not only is it sweet, it's also sour!
Bonjour - for some reason i'm having a really hard time with this lesson. My confusion is the fact that the lesson instructs that the order is reversed with reminding someone of someone else, which I understand well enough.
My problem comes in the test, for a perfect example:
"You remind him of Audrey Hepburn" to which the answer is:
Tu lui rappelles Audrey Hepburn
This seems like the exact same order as the English. Any tips or help would be appreciated. Merci d'avance.
Also, do the following sentences have the same meaning? Which sentence is incorrect? Why?
On fait du sport régulièrement, ce qui est important.
C'est important qu'on fasse du sport régulièrement.
C'est important ce qu'on fasse du sport régulièrement.
Thank you
