"Are you finishing early tonight?"

Translation: Tu finis tôt ce soir ?

[TabAlleman]

Why is "soir" used instead of "nuit" for "tonight"?

More specifically, why would "tu finis tot ce nuit" be marked wrong?

[Steve540893]

Surely "est-ce que tu finis tôt se soir" is perfectly acceptable?

[mindtonic]

Yes, it should be.

[Samuel270702]

No, it shouldn't. He used "se" instead of "ce".

[h6Oct]

Why soor and not nuit ?

[DavidMunro711128]

Is,"Tu est finir tot ce soir?" exceptable?

[OrionMille2]

I'm no expert, but i don't think its acceptable because finir must be conjugated and in its conjugated form it contains the 'are' that you are trying to imput with 'est'

Also if you translate your first two words it says 'you is' rather than you are.

I hope this is helpful

[le.cerveau]

Ce soir = this evening. Ce nuit = tonight.

[Elisabeth968507]

Why is le soir wrong?

[LABEDZKI]

I put "cette nuit " because that means tonight -marked wrong.. "ce soir" means this evening and the question was for 'tonight.

[Samuel270702]

"ce soir" is the correct translation for "tonight" in this case. "cette nuit" means more like overnight.

[mark-in-cali]

why not "Vous finissez tot ce soir"

[SyedMustyen]

This should be accepted. Also it will be ô in the word tôt with the accent. :)

[MavisSayer]

Why tus, not tu?

[MavisSayer]

Now it's correcting tus and making it tu!

[JimmyM.A.E]

Es tu finis tôt ce soir

[SyedMustyen]

Es tu finis is a wrong construction. "Tu finis" conjugation already has the words "You are finishing" so the Es in beginning is not required. However if you want to convert it to a question form then it would be "Finis-tu tôt ce soir?"

[PrakharJos5]

Why is ce soir intead of it shouldn't it be only soir
