Bonjour Madame !
Thanks for posting such a captivating and mesmerising reader. But I would like to ask a question regarding a phrase which reads-
Bravo Papa! (rires) On n’arrivera jamais à faire de belles crêpes !
Indeed, here the Brown Bear comminicates with his dad but why is the verb ‘rire’ conjugated as ‘rires’ though I learnt from a lesson that it is - Il rit/ Elle rit/ On rit .
Is this a special way of expressing one’s emotions while transcribing in French ?
Merci d’avance ! Bonne journée !
Please can you explain why I can't use Le Samedi at the beginning of the sentence is wrong, yet in the explanation Le is being used!
Bonjour, I put that "she's dancing" and can't work out why it was marked wrong, the answer is "she takes dance lessons" please could you explain?
kind regards
Gloria
For the sentence “Yes, you’re not wrong” I wrote “Oui, tu ne te trompes pas” thinking that I could use “se tromper” as an alternative to “avoir tort”, but it appears not. Can you explain ?
Hello all,
I've seen several French expressions/phrases where there is no definite or indefinite article, where there would be one in English.
For example. C'est bon signe meaning that's A good sign, j'ai rencard avec lui meaning I have AN appointment with him.
Is there a general rule that explains this ?
Thanks,
Jean
