    The concept of consolidating so many English past tenses into 2 main past tenses is more difficult than one might first imagine. When to use passé-composé vs imparfait takes a while to master. This is when paying attention to a native speaker becomes very important. Wonderful lesson, and very well explained. Loving your verb series! 😁😎👍🏻

    I am sorry the video was a little bit late today, I needed a break yesterday so I had to edit this one this morning :) I hope you have a wonderful Sunday 🤩 Note on exercise 3.10: the solution is affirmative because you are supposed to add the negation only if it's something that didn't happen when you were a kid 😉 You don't have the book to do the exercises yet?

    c'est ma lettre, pouvais- vous verifier ? Je suis allé en vacances le mois dernier. c'était trés interessant. j'étais avec mes amis. Nous sommes allés à Manali. La route était trés mauvais. Mais le temps faisait trés froid c'est bien. Nous avons reservé deux chambres pour nous. Les chambres étaient fantastique et le paysage depuis les fenêtres des chambres vraiments belles. Le premier jour, nous sommes restés à la chambre parce que nous avons fatigué . Mais le prochain jours, nous avons visité beaucoup d'endroits. Nous avons fait de la randonée mais ja ne l'ai pas aimé. Le troisième jour, nous avons pris un bain dans la rivière. L'eau de la rivière était trés froid mais nous l'avons aimé. Le dernier jour, nous avons mangé ensemble dans le trés bon restaurant. La nourriture était là est très deliciuse. Aprés le dinêr, nous avons preparé nos valises. Ce voyager is trés proche de mon coeur. À bientôt Efman
