Why is it -

instead of
Je te ne me souviens pas
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."
merci,
anne
Is "demie" feminine form (with the "e") because heure is feminine? Merci.
J'habite aux Saudi Arabie. C'est vrai?
In the sentence, encountered in a novel:
Il ouvrait un petit bar, y prenait une bouteille et deux verres.
Why "y"? This seems to be a perfect example of "de plus location", as he is taking the bottle from a place.
Can someone elucidate, please"
Much obliged!
There might be an error on a test I just took. The question as written is "Ma mère nous a récompensés pour nous être comportés... The sentence as given shows an agreement between the past participle of récompenser, and the auxilliary, avoir. Is this correct? My instincts say "Non", but perhaps I'm missing something.
Why "prevoir" for "nous avons prévu d'aller..." instead of "nous avons organisé (or planifié)?
I understand "prevoir " to mean "foresee" , but if she made plans then it would seem to me organisé or planifié would be more accurate. Thanks.
If I have to say 80 or so, What expression should I use?
Also, If I have to say 500 or so, and 1000 or so, What shoud I use?
I could not find rules for punctuation on your site. I tried other sites on line but they seemed confusing and inconsistent. I am sure you could do a better job explaining the rules that you follow.
