I received this question in a quiz: "Les femmes travaillent: ________ lavent et les autres cuisinent."
Isn't "quelques-unes" another correct way to say "some of them?"
Suggestions please, for the best way to find the vocabulary given at the start of each writing exercise and dictée. I use the WordReference app and the unabridged Collins Robert dictionary, but frequently find that phrases in particular are difficult or impossible to find, which makes the vocab list unhelpful. Thanks.
Merci d'avance :)
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/
This is in the lesson examples:
Sophie a mal à l'oreille.Sophie's ear aches.
Sophie has an earache
But when I entered « Aurélie a mal à l’oreille » as the quiz answer it said I was wrong and should have answered « Aurélie a mal aux oreilles ». Which version is actually correct?
Question: why does this mean "we fear that he would change his mind" ? Is it the ne-que=only? that he changes his mind?
This was on my Kwizig test and I just don't see anything that indicates "would."
