I thought this was "je recommanderais" - "which I would recommend" - rather than "which I will recommend".
Two questions:
1) In this context, would the French always say "I will recommend" rather than " I would recommend"?
2) If not, is there any way of detecting the difference, aurally, between first person in the future and in the conditional ?
I don't understand the difference between Je viens a + ville and Je viens de + ville
Hello. Is it really possible to find out, which tense i should use, if i only see this first part of the sentence, without knowing whats following?
When we arrived in the changing rooms,
Bonjour,
In this sentence which I found it in a book, vous etes combien dans ta famille?
Why they used "ta" and not "vos" or "votre"?
Merci
The preposition malgré is closer to despite, whereas the expression en dépit de is closer to in spite of.
I found this sentence a bit confusing as the pairs of words are described as interchangeable (and certainly are in English, apart from despite being a bit more formal) - does that "closer to" just mean that one of the pair is a single word and the other a prepositional phrase?
Nous nous émerveillions toujours devant les champs de fleurs sauvages qui avaient tout juste commencé à éclore après l'hiver.
Merci mille fois!
When do I use j'ai or je suis because they both mean the same thing so I don't know when's the time to use which I have
Are all verbs strictly reflexive verbs or can they sometimes not be reflexive
The "c'est" audio really really sounds it begins with "F"!
Also the method you have chosen to overwrite/highlight the mistakes in the users submission makes it really difficult to see the mistakes! I think it would be better move the comparison from behind the tooltip and just display it on the page, and use underlines, insertion of missing letters etc. with a different colour, this will make it easier to read and compare.
