could someone tell me how to form subjunctive please?? I have only learnt set phrases with the verb already conjugated but I may need to know for the dreaded grammar gap fill

1) Take they form of the verb
e.g ils finissent
2) Remove the -ent to get subjunctive stem
e.g finiss
3) following endings : -e, -es, -e, -ions, -iez, -ent
e.g je finisse, nous finissions

Moi aussi! J'ai révisé mon vocabulaire sur "Memrise"- c'est très utile!

Pour moi c'est plus que j'espère que ce sera possible d'utiliser le vocabulaire de la deuxième année....

Oui, surtout la pollution. Ou le crime peut-être.

J'ai appris beaucoup de phrases qui vont être utiles dans le deuxième examen (par exemple, les phrases pour l'introduction).

Tu vas faire ton essai sur quoi dans le deuxième examen?

N'oublie pas que le gaz carbonique est la premiere cause du forcage radiatif positif et donc entraine la rechauffement planétaire :smile:

I usually spend so much time on the listening part, because I always want to write what the recording says exactly, so I need to repeat it about 5 times for each question.

Also in the essay can you use on and vous interchangeably?
for example one sentence saying vous pouvez and then later on putting on peut?

Sticking with one of them is probably better - French people don't generally use vous in the same way the English do, so I'd stay stick with using on where possible :smile:

I've found that it's usually better to stick with one and work with it throughout I find otherwise you just have to spend time thinking about which ending you need on verbs, but it's honestly preference on what you find easiest to do and run with. I personally prefer sticking with on it's easier in most cases.

Can some explain why this is 'prise' I've never seen this conjugation of prendre before!

That's definitely wrong. Pretty sure the 'e' is not supposed to be there. Searched it up on 'conjugation.fr' and 'prise' does not exist for the verb 'prendre'.
