Show what type of agreement, if any, is necessary for the italicized verb in the following sentence: Il n'a jamais reçu_____ les letteres.
-
---
-
E
-
Es
-
S
Correct Answer
A. ---Explanation
The correct answer is "es". In French, the verb "recevoir" (to receive) agrees with the direct object in gender and number. Since "les lettres" is plural and feminine, the verb "reçu" needs to agree with it, resulting in "reçues". However, in this sentence, the negation "ne...jamais" cancels out the agreement, so the verb remains in its base form "reçu".Rate this question:

E
-
Es
-
S
Correct Answer
A. EExplanation
The correct answer is "e". In this sentence, the verb "envoyé" is in the past participle form, agreeing with the direct object "la boîte" in gender and number. Since "la boîte" is feminine and singular, the past participle also needs to be feminine and singular, which is represented by the ending "e".Rate this question:

-
-------
-
E
-
Es
-
S
Correct Answer
A. -------Explanation
The correct answer is "es". In French, the verb "aimer" (to like) agrees with the subject in gender and number. Since "vous" is the subject of the sentence and it is a plural form, the verb "aimer" needs to be in the plural form as well, which is "aimé es".Rate this question:
-

Show what type of agreement, if any, is necessary for the italicized verb in the following sentence: J'adore ces photos! Je les ai pris_____ juste pour vous!
-
-----
-
E
-
Es
-
S
Correct Answer
A. EsExplanation
The correct answer is "es." In the sentence, "J'adore ces photos! Je les ai pris_____ juste pour vous!", the verb "pris" is referring to the plural noun "photos" (les photos), so the agreement is necessary. "Es" is the correct form of the verb "prendre" in the third person singular form.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Non, personne n'est venu.Explanation

The response "Non, rien n'est arrivé" translates to "No, nothing happened." It indicates that there was no occurrence or event.

-

-
Non, rien ne va pas arriver.
Correct Answer
A. Non, rien ne va arriver.Explanation
The correct negative answer to the question "Quelque chose va arriver?" is "Non, rien ne va arriver." This means "No, nothing is going to happen." The other options "Non, personne ne va pas arriver" (No, nobody is not going to arrive) and "Non, rien ne va pas arriver" (No, nothing is not going to happen) are incorrect because they contain double negatives, which create a positive meaning.Rate this question:

The word "personne" is used to mean "nobody" or "no one" and is placed before the verb "va" to indicate that no one is going to make a phone call. The other answer choices either include incorrect word order or double negatives, which are not used in French.Rate this question:
