"He seems mean, but he is just shy."

Translation: Il a l'air méchant, mais il est juste timide.

[Gardnen]

why do the hints suggest semble if it is suppose to be a l'air

[GijsR68]

Can we use 'justement' instead of 'juste' ?

[PATRICKPIZ1]

no. it means justly, rightly, fittingly, exactly.

[Max685224]

'moche' was also used for 'mean', a few exercises back

[PATRICKPIZ1]

i think duo has only used 'moche' in it's preferred sentences as 'ugly'. if you can cite a sentence that duo created where that isn't so, please do.

[TheRagingG1]

what about "il a l'air méchant, mais il n'est que timide"?

[PATRICKPIZ1]

it should work.
