It is hard to differentiate between "pomme" and "pain" when the computer is reciting the statement.
No se, pero para mi es mas difícil distinguir algunas pronunciaciones: el "DU" suena exactamente igual al "TU", es difícil habituarse.
Only if there is something before, like "il parle du pain noir" = he is speaking of the black bread.
Why 'black bread'? What the hell is that? Why not use more context-appropriate adjectives like "brown bread" or "rye bread"?
The aim of the game is to combine words you already know in their various forms in French (masculine, feminine, plural). And in French, "du pain noir" is not only rye bread but an expression "manger son pain noir d'abord" meaning "having hard times first - to enjoy better times "pain blanc" afterwards, coming from the times when white bread (refined wheat) was reserved to rich people.
Yes they know it... because they learnt it... maybe not here, maybe not recently, but they learnt it for sure.
Probably what you're hearing is the combination of "d" and the French "u" resulting in something like the sound in "je". It happens in English when we say "dry" and it often sounds like it starts with a "j".
Anyone know the difference between Noire and Noir? i know they are both meanings for black, but what defines which?
Noire and noir are the feminine and masculine (respectively) forms of the same adjective.
Most common nouns in French are masculine or feminine. The form of the adjective changes slightly depending on whether it modifies a masculine or feminine word. Masculine words go with the indefinite article "Le" and feminine words go with the article "la."
If the adjective black (noir) is referring to a masculine noun, e.g., le chat, it's le chat noir (the black cat).
If it's referring to a feminine noun, e.g., la jupe, it's la jupe noire (the black skirt).
the first translation of du is "of the" so how is "of the black bread" wrong!!!
i put "of the black bread" instead of "some of the black bread" its so confusing when the word black comes after in french but in english its black bread instead of in french bread black"
l'ordinateur arrive pas a distinguer mes voix!!! et alors ca devient un erreur
Why is everybody making fun of the black bread? He just want to be normal guys, cummon.
