Dans la / Le Vs. En

Question

Why isn’t the answer dans Le?Me suis__________________ cours de danse I noted in the quick lesson that it should be dans la if it is specific and en if it is general. Cours de danse seems specific, but I got the answer wrong.

Accepted Answer

Hi Deborah,
You actually pinned the wrong lesson to your query so it took me a while to find the actual question .
Je suis en cours de danse 
is correct and it means that you are having a dance lesson/class rather than just being in the room where the lesson is taking place.
It would then be -
Je suis dans la salle de danse 
 
Take a look at the lesson again -

Hope this helps!

Hi Deborah,I agree that "Cours de danse" is masculine and should be "Le cours de danse".https://www.wordreference.com/fren/cours%20de%20dansePerhaps you should post a possible error report to flag your point up?Jim
