Aah, I see :ahee:

How come a state school taught those though?

Because we don't live in a totally ****ed up world?

Italian GCSE may actually come to fruition... turns out one of my friends decided to do Italian GCSE and actually got a tutor, so I told him if he was to do the GCSE I would too. (Y) :biggrin:

But the question is...are there any Italians up there in NE whose "mozziconis" you could kick in the GCSE?
Achieving regional top 10 in a language that's not your native is quite magnificento

I was going to retake C3 and C4, but then I realised that time constraints meant picking between the internet and doing revision for a couple of maths exams, when I already have the A-level.

I chose the internet.

You don't need to know the cases (though you should learn them really); I A*'d it through intuition :tongue:

*cross with self for not asking a tutor to organise private candidacy while I still understood Latin*

Hmmm certain people on TSR think it's a good idea to introduce Thati "S'ill vous Plâit" Tootoo to the Romance branch of languages... :redface:

Thati "S'ill vous Plâit" Tootoo thinks he should just stick with Germanic languages for now, with the possibility of easing into Russian in the future perhaps, needless is to say, Thati "S'ill vous Plâit" Tootoo is not sure he's up for that at the moment! :wink:

Hallo

Ich bin neu hier..aehm achsoo.. ich lerne seit vier Jahren Deutsch und ausserdem lerne ich Spanisch. Ich wuerde sagen,dass mein Deutsch total quatsch ist. Ich mache viele Fehler obwohl ich Deutsch an der Uni lerne...das macht mich echt traurig. und auch ich lerne Deutsch und Spanisch an einer schlechten Universitaet. eine so gennant eine 'Hochschule' (ex poly in der Grossbritannien) Wir lernen nicht so viel ueber literatur und Geschichte von Deutschland,mehr Grammatik und eine praktische Verwendung der Sprache..das kann ab und zu langweilig sein.

Jedoch mag ich Buecher ueber die Geschichte und Literatur von Deutschland lesen..so es ist gar nicht schlecht.

Fehler..Fehler ueberall! (um Toy Story zu paraphrasieren :biggrin:

)

Merci! Tu l'as expliqué très bien. En ce moment (is this correct?) je comprends.

Posted from TSR Mobile

Yes this is a correct use of En ce moment.

Original post by We, happy few!

Réponse courte : Parce que. :tongue:

Réponse longue : C'est des points de grammaire, tout simplement. Je ne saurai t'expliquer davantage. But just remember that:

à moins que ... ne (+ subjunctive)

Sometimes, you'll also see: à moins que (+ subjunctive)

I don't know which one is "GRAMMATICALLY" correct, though. :erm:

But let's say that both are fine! :smile:

Yes both are grammatically correct :smile:

And pas is not needed with à moins que, it is not argo (like omitting the ne in everyday French and only keeping the pas), it is actually politically correct :smile:

There is a rule for when you can omit it, but I don't remember it, because I never omit it sorry :P
