June 2 French

<p>Any takers?
Am I mistaken or where there a few erroneous questions in the vocab/grammar section?</p>

<p>I took French too . Can't wait to start discussing .</p>

<p>vocab was hard.</p>

<p>"hard" is actually an euphemism.</p>

<p>"hideous" comes to mind.</p>

<p>did anyone else notice the mistake? it was like "elle s'est ... la jambe" and all choices ended with -</p>

<p>there are many that i should have omitted...unfortunately i'm a guessaholic and put down ridiculous answers for far too many of them. aie.</p>

<p>for elle s'est casse la jambe, past reflexive verbs do not agree if there's a (ok i can never tell the difference, i just go with the flow, but it's either inderect or direct) object directly following them.
I remember reading about that in my late night cram session last night and being like *** none of my teachers ever mentioned that...</p>

<p>why would etre have to be reflective for the other one?</p>

<p>for the last question I said the monuments but i really had no idea</p>

<p>looooooool you are right Rister_Chutophs
it should be elle s'est cassee la jambe
at : "J'ai peur que nous ne soyons ..." me too i thought it should be nous nous, perdu is the right answer isn't it ?
i could not do the one with burning sand cuz i didn't understand the answer choices.
what was the answer to the first, the one with the waiter at the restaurant ?</p>

<p>what was this burning sand thing you guys are talking about?
i chose serviettes because i saw the word waiter and assumed napkins, but i really had no idea what was going on in that sentence</p>

<p>yeah i chose perdus and serviettes too.</p>

<p>other opinions about the last question?</p>

<p>Just wondering, how many years of French have you guys taken?? I've taken 4, but my teacher is a pushover and so we don't learn anything.</p>

<p>Reading your discussion, I'm assuming I would not have done so well.</p>

<p>i've done 4 years as well and i think i'm pretty good in french - but our teacher focused rather on writing/speaking than on learning a few exceptions and rare idioms (which are very important for the SAT Subject Test unfortunately :( )</p>

<p>It's casse and not cassee because the direct object, the jambe, with which the participle agrees was after casse, not before.</p>

<p>I put perdu.</p>

<p>I'm gonna list some ones I was unsure or, or what I can think of... anyone agree/disagree?</p>

<p>Semelle (for the burning sand)
c'est l'heure du GOUTER
The students have to s'inscrire
The pictures were badly developed because they weren't eclarcies</p>

<p>Do you use subjonctif after promettre? Le train arrivera dans quelques minutes, et je te promets que ta mere sera la. I put future, but was unsure.</p>

<p>For the passage about the veterinary clinic, was it that you will represent vets? And you need a college type degree?</p>

<p>here are my answers</p>

<p>cass</p>

<p>Do you know what type of French was on the test. I planning on taking it as my next subject test next year. Was it testing the future tense, or the pass</p>

<p>well, it's obviosuly testing all tenses.
there is a list of covered topics on collegeboard.com i think</p>

<p>@ Billy__Liar : 2 years at school , but i'm good cuz i've been living in Paris
@ Kristina : what is semelle ? i put sera
do we use subjonctif avec le verbe penser ? je pense qu'elle vienne ou je pense qu'elle vient. i did je pense qu'elle vient
About the vet . clinic i put selling medicaments for dogs ( it was originally saying : vendre ........ canines )
How did you do the question about that shop? I did it is open during the weekend ( 23 - 24 Aout )</p>

<p>Rister: ********, are you sure about eclarcie? Because doesn't that mean brightened up?</p>

<p>And I thought the vet thing was representing them, because the title was Delegue something, which I took to mean delegate.</p>

<p>I put the characteristic was so many young people. That was kind of weird, though.</p>

<p>What about the gold jewelry passage? Where does the gold come from? Is it the boue in the river? And does she bring a griot with her to get the guy's attention?</p>

<p>Baphomet, you use subjunctive with penser when it's negative. So it was je ne pense pas qu'elle vienne.</p>

<p>The shop is not open on the weekend-- didn't it say closed dimanche? I said it was open during lunch, because it said open continuellement or something.</p>

<p>Also, for the ad about the leather accessories, what is the thing you would not find there? Sac de voyage?</p>
