Thanks for your comment. I was trying to get a background but I understand if it is a distraction for you. I am sorry about this. I will take this into account in the future. Merci.
There is a mistake that was pointed to me by ltzAimor. Q 23 of 1st part of the text entitled An embarrassing encounter (24:33), the answer I gave as A should read C. Indeed the student should have been in a Maths class instead of being at the cinema. I am not too sure why I made this silly mistake but I can only think that it is because I misread the question. So a big thank you to LtzAimor who spotted this error. This is also another reason why I usually provide the text.
@@コラリーナ Thanks for pointing this out to me. This is an old video. My audio has improved since because I now have a mic and a ball. I made a similar video recently. Let me know what you think of the audio. Here is the link. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rcOnG5oB6t0.html Merci.
Thanks for your comment. You are actually right. If I had made a comment instead of displaying the answers, I would have said that he was supposed to be in maths class. I will have to pin a comment to make this correction. Thanks for pointing this out to me. Au lieu de = instead of. I must have been tired by the time I reached this part. I must have read where was he instead of where should he have been. Big difference. I am so surprised that one person mentioned it after one year!
Thanks for your question. The reflexive pronoun of "nous" is just 'nous". The sentence is "Nous devons nous lever de bonne heure...". You would say: Nous nous levons de bonne heure. I know it is strange but that is how it is.
@@FrenchAction1 Madame I get the conjugation of the reflexive verb, but I thought that because you had a verb before it (nous devons) you would change it to an infinitive so it would be "Nous devons se lever" I'm a bit confused, still..
@@laurre9722 I have just typed nous devons se lever in Google and automatically, Google put nous devons nous lever. I hope you feel reassured now. If you happen to have learnt it before wrongly, please make sure that you don't make the mistake. Otherwise you will be penalised.
@@FrenchAction1 D'accord, merci madame. Just for clarification, this is a general rule, right? No matter if you have a verb in between, the pronoun agrees with the subject? So you'd say, for example, Vous devez vous lever de bonne heure? And the verb remains in the infinitive?
Bonjour Olutomi, Happy to hear from you. Do you know that I am on Instagram now? I am finishing a 15-day French vocabulary challenge to help you to learn French words and expressions. If you are interested, look for me on Insta: french_action
Of course. With shorter sentences, it is more difficult to assess the wide range of vocabulary and correct grammar. What I have given you is an example, not the only way. Good luck in your exam if you are having one!
