"Où suis-je ?"

[Jackjon]

Very useful after the extra bottle of wine...........

[anise.sald]

Hahaha

[RaoVenkat]

the french and their wine

[Adephonsus]

J'aime cette question, c'est très utile.

[Dorothy1234]

what does that mean?

[Chungleton]

It means: "I like this question, it's very useful"

[Dorothy1234]

Thank you.

[FBellinaso]

Would "Où est-ce que je suis?" be correct also? This way it would sound more like the way you'd ask it in Portuguese: "Onde é que eu estou?" (thus, I think it'd be somewhat easier for Portuguese speakers).

[ChessStatic]

As far as my knowledge goes that would be correct as well. Although "Oú suis-je" is even more suitable for daily use, as I have heard it :)

[LanguageButcher]

So Où is "where" and ou is "or"?

[Jackjon]

Yes....you got it

[AstroTheNomer]

First thing that comes to my mind is Amnesia

[ShoshanaCo1]

So if I go time-traveling, how would I say "When am I?"

[Jackjon]

Leave that question until you become.

[ShoshanaCo1]

Fair enough! I got this sentence before "quand" appeared and the drop-down hints say "où" could be either "where" or "when".

[Linsho.]

You are in the house of Elrond. Ten o'clock, if you'd like to know :D :D (Lord of the Rings)

[impartialryuk]

Why is it used the "-" for "suis-je"? would it be correct if i just write "suis je"?

[Jackjon]

The ",,,," are exceptional and unnecessary. "Suis - Je= Am I?" Ou suis - Je=Where Am I?"

[impartialryuk]

O: okok, thank you!

[DexterGodfrey]

why is it "suis-je" instead of "je suis" ?

[ShoshanaCo1]

Because that's how it's structured, similarly to English. Think "I am hungry." vs "Where am I?"

[Aasma.Aaka]

where i am is the same

[Jackjon]

No, Aasma. Two things; Where am I? is a question whilst Where I am is a statement. Secondly the Pronoun "I" is always in higher case no matter where it is applied in a sentence, especially on a language learning course. With respect, JJ.

I am trying so hard, putting in so much time and effort, I just can't seem to understand what the female voice is saying. To my ears the words aren't clear and understandable: Help!

[Zugz469]

The elisions are my biggest problem. I understand when they are used, but the audio clips make it very hard to break it down. If I can suggest an improvement, the slow clips should add a pause where the elisions are compared to the full speed clip so we can hear when it is two words and not just one slurred sound.

[FZZYjat8]

The audio is so bad I could only answer this by copying the answer.

[amirzarif]

The audio sounds like "ooh swichj". Is that the correct pronunciation? Not individually like ou. suis. je.?
