Adventures in French
Ah, French transitive conjunctions, I'm sure I'll get the hang of them, one of these days. This week's lesson covered the following:
Pour: for, as in the amount of time for something to either have happened or will happen.
Pendant: during, covering the two points of time, between which, something happened.
Depuis: since, or from a point in the past, to the present.
I suppose I could write: 'J'ai loue un appartment dans le ville de Calistoga pour deux mois.'
I rented an apartment in Calistoga for two months.
Or: 'J'ai etudie la Japonaise pendant Juin-Aout, 2011.'
I studied Japanese from June to August, 2011.
Something like that.
Eventually, this will get natural.
