French language Q&A Forum

Bonjour!!

I had these two sentences in a work book and one of them doesn't use le in front of the day of the week, why is that?

Vas- tu au cinema dimanche?

Are you going to the movies on Sunday?

il va à la bibliothéque le samedi

He goes to the library on Saturday. 

Merci

In this paragraph, the English sentence was "My CV SPOKE for itself" but the French was in the present tense.  Mon CV parle de lui-même. Is this a mistake or am I missing something?

In the lesson it mentions 'the irregular root prenn-' but I think it is in fact regular. The present 3rd person indicative plural is Ils prennent and that leads to prenn- as the subjunctive stem. Isn't it only irregular in the 1st and 2nd person plural where the prenn- becomes pren- as in prenions and preniez? 

In the audio file for the sentence "Nous mourons tous un jour" in this lesson, the word "tous" has a silent s (IPA [tu]). Why is this? I understood that when "tous" is used as an indefinite pronoun to refer to a group of people like this, the s should be pronounced (IPA [tus]). Have I misunderstood something here? I would appreciate any help on this :)

I knew it must be Je, but it sounded like Tu.

Hi, I really enjoyed this exercise but want clarification on the sentence "Elle était en larmes !"

I would assume that this action was a one-off, not a continual state, so I used the passé compose (Elle a été). 

Is it because the sentences prior all used the imparfait?

Thanks

J'ai utilise "ce nouveau cahot" au lieu de "ce nouveau chaos".  Est-il assez pareil en sens?

He does not say 'installent DES projecteurs et DES caméras' as I would have expected. Is what he says an acceptable grammatical alternative?
