In the sentence the weather was nice for whole week, so we should have used il faisait but you have used il a fait please explain
In the second part of the last sentence, "je viens juste d'emménager à Berlin !" is the correct answer.
I used déménager because I thought it was the general verb to use when moving from one place or one city to another.
And, I thought emménager implied moving into a house or apartment, rather than moving from one city to another.
Please clarify the different meanings. Thanks
This isn't the first time in a dictation where a word appears in the text, but isn't in the spoken section. In this specific case, "que" is absent in the spoken portion of the phrase "on s'est vus jeudi avant que vous ne partiez." It (que) is used 8 times in this exercise, and clearly articulated 7 times, (minus the portion mentioned). Is this an error? Or a natural omission for advanced french speaker? Perhaps something to add in another lesson?
I thought "ignorer" was one of those false friends and actually meant "not to know" rather than "ignore".
Can you clarify? Thanks.
Bonjour a tous,
I am new here. Please I find it difficult to identify when le or les is pronounced. The same goes for de/du.Is there any way I can always identify each of these when pronounced?
Merci.
The lesson notes an exception for naître (correctly) and for apparaître. It does not clearly state the exception for apparaître - although I note in discussion it has been mentioned it is because it also conjugates with être in passé composé. As I understand it, and checking other verb conjugation sites, this is correct but not what is shown on the verb conjugation site of Lawless French https://www.lawlessfrench.com/verb-conjugations/apparaitre/
As they basically mean the same thing in this context.
