Answer 28

Trop Trop (de...) = before a noun 1) Before an adjective Vous êtes trop jeunes pour ce film. = You’re too young for this movie. 2) Before an adverb Ce TGV va trop lentement. = This TGV is going too slowly. 3) Right after a verb Tu manges trop ! = You’re eating too much! 4) Before a noun, with “de” : “Trop de” “Trop de” can mean “too many” or “too much.” J’ai mis trop de sel dans mon gâteau. = I put too much salt in my cake. Ma tante a trop de chats! = My aunt has too many cats! And one final note: In colloquial French, Trop = “Très” It’s a popular turn of phrase; a casual exaggeration to express your enthusiasm (or dismay.) For example: C’est trop bien ici ! = It’s too good here, it’s amazing here. Je suis trop contente que tu sois là ! = I’m so happy you’re here! Oh non, c’est trop dommage ! = Oh no, that’s too bad!

Question 30

a lot

Answer 30

Beaucoup before a noun = beaucoup (de....) Also use after a verb "On marche beaucoup a Paris", "Nous mangeons beaucoup". Note, before a noun, "beaucoup" becomes "beaucoup de...(= a lot of....)", ie, "il y a beaucoup de gens ici ce soir" il y a beaucoup de la plages a st barts Beaucoup plus = a lot more Beaucoup moins = a lot less Beaucoup trop = way too much In some cases, you might use souvent (= often) instead: Tu viens souvent ici ? = Do you come here often? Nous allons très souvent à Lyon. = We go to Lyon a lot. / We go to Lyon very often. When there are two verbs in a row, beaucoup comes right after the one you want to emphasize. For example: J’aime manger. = I like to eat. (Verbs: “Aime” and “Manger”) J’aime beaucoup manger. = I really like to eat. J’aime manger beaucoup. = I like to eat a lot (a lot of food.)
