2. Give the correct translation:   We go to the movie theater by taxi.

Submit
3. Comment est-ce que tu vas a la lune (moon)?  (Give a truthful answer.)

Explanation

The correct answer is "en navette" because "navette" means shuttle in French. So, the truthful answer to the question "How do you go to the moon?" would be "by shuttle".

Submit
4. When conjugating a regular RE verb - what do you add to the "vous" form?

Explanation

When conjugating a regular RE verb, you add "ez" to the "vous" form. This is because in French, the "ez" ending is used for the second person plural (vous) in the present tense of regular RE verbs. It is a standard rule of conjugation for this verb category.

Submit
5. What is the conjugation for: You hear

Explanation

The correct answer is "Tu entends". In French, the conjugation of the verb "entendre" for the pronoun "tu" is "entends". This conjugation is used when referring to the second person singular, informal "you". Therefore, "Tu entends" is the correct conjugation for "You hear" in French.

Submit
6. Choose the correct preposition - en, a or le/la/l' :
       Nous prenons _______ autobus.

Explanation

The correct preposition to use in this sentence is "l'". This is because the word "autobus" begins with a vowel sound, so the preposition "le" is contracted to "l'".

Submit
7. What is the conjugation for: The girls sell

Explanation

The correct answer is "Les filles vendent." In French, the verb "vendre" means "to sell." When conjugating this verb for the subject "Les filles" (which means "the girls"), the correct form is "vendent." This is because "Les filles" is a plural subject, so the verb must also be in the plural form.

Submit
8. What is the conjugation for:  The students learn

Explanation

The correct answer is "Les eleves apprennent." This is the correct conjugation for the subject "Les eleves" (the students) and the verb "apprendre" (to learn) in the present tense. The verb "apprennent" agrees with the subject "Les eleves" in both number (plural) and person (third person).

Submit
9. When conjugating a regular RE verb - what do you add to the "je" form?

Explanation

When conjugating a regular RE verb, you add "s" to the "je" form.

Submit
10. Choose the correct preposition - en, a or le/la/l' :
       Je vais a la bibliotheque _______ voiture.

Explanation

The correct preposition to use in this sentence is "en." This is because "en" is used to indicate the means of transportation when traveling. In this case, it is indicating that the person is going to the library by car.

Submit
11. What does entendre mean?

Explanation

Entendre means "to hear." It refers to the act of perceiving sound through the ears. It does not mean "to listen," which implies a conscious effort to pay attention and understand what is being heard. "To sell" is unrelated to the meaning of entendre.

Submit
12. Which verb is an irregular RE verb:

Explanation

The verb "prendre" is an irregular RE verb because it does not follow the regular conjugation pattern of RE verbs. In its conjugation, the stem "prend-" changes in different forms, such as "je prends" (I take) and "nous prenons" (we take). This irregularity sets it apart from regular RE verbs like "vendre" (to sell) and "attendre" (to wait).

Submit
13. Choose the correct preposition - en, a or le/la/l' :
       En France, vous prenez ________ metro

Explanation

In France, you take the metro. "Le" is the correct preposition to use in this context because it is the masculine singular form of "the" in French. "La" is the feminine singular form and "a" is not a preposition that would be used in this sentence.

Submit
14. When conjugating an irregular RE verb - what do you do to the "vous" form?

Explanation

When conjugating an irregular RE verb, the "vous" form is formed by taking out the "d" and adding "ez". This rule applies to irregular RE verbs, where the "d" is removed before adding the standard ending "-ez" for the "vous" form.

Submit
15. Choose the correct conjugation for:  They take (boys)

Explanation

The correct answer is "Ils prennent." In French, the verb "prendre" means "to take." When conjugating this verb in the third person plural (they), we use the ending "-ent." Therefore, the correct conjugation is "Ils prennent."

Submit
16. Which is NOT an irregular RE verb?

Explanation

The verb "perdre" is not an irregular RE verb. It follows the regular conjugation pattern for RE verbs, where the infinitive form ends in -re and the conjugated forms are formed by removing the -re ending and adding the appropriate endings. Both "apprendre" and "comprendre" are irregular RE verbs because they have changes in their stems in some of the conjugated forms.

Submit
17. Choose the correct conjugation for:  We take

Explanation

The correct conjugation for "We take" in French is "Nous prenons."

Submit
18. Choose the correct preposition - en, a or le/la/l' :
       Je vais au parc  ________ velo

Explanation

The correct preposition to use in this sentence is "a". "Je vais au parc" means "I am going to the park" and "velo" means "by bike". Therefore, the correct sentence is "Je vais au parc à vélo" which translates to "I am going to the park by bike".

Submit
19. Give the correct translation:
               You (formal) take the train to Chicago.

Explanation

The correct translation for "You (formal) take the train to Chicago" is "Vous prenez le train a Chicago." This is because the verb "prendre" means "to take" and is conjugated correctly for the subject "vous" (you formal). The preposition "a" is used to indicate "to" in this context, and "Chicago" is correctly translated as "Chicago."

Submit
20. What is the conjugation for: She sells

Explanation

The correct answer is "Elle vend" because in French, the verb "to sell" (vendre) is conjugated differently depending on the subject. When the subject is "she" (elle), the correct conjugation is "vend."

Submit
21. Give the correct translation:  
    The van does not go.

Explanation

The correct translation for the given sentence "The van does not go" is "Le camion ne va pas." This is because "le camion" translates to "the van" and "ne va pas" translates to "does not go."

Submit
22. When conjugating an irregular RE verb - what do you do to the "elles" form?

Explanation

When conjugating an irregular RE verb, the "elles" form requires taking out the "d" and adding "nnent". This is because irregular RE verbs have their own unique conjugation patterns, and in the "elles" form, the regular ending "-ent" is modified to "-nnent" to maintain the correct pronunciation and follow the rules of French grammar.

Submit
23. Which is NOT a correct conjugation for an irregular RE verb:

Explanation

The given correct answer is "apprennons." This is not a correct conjugation for an irregular RE verb because the correct conjugation for the subject "nous" (we) should be "apprenons" without the extra "n" in the middle.
