French 2 Living Arrangements/Browsing and Buying

​In this lesson, you will express opinions about neighborhoods and living arrangements.

​le centre ville - downtown
louer - to rent
d'entretenir - to maintain
je puisse amener - I am able to bring
bruyant - noisy

​la banlieu - suburbs
j'aimerais vivre - I would like to
live
un animal de compagnie - a pet
le proprietaire - landlord
un loyer - a rent
ce quartier m'ennuie - this
neighborhood bores me

​Pay attention to many verbs used affirmatively and negatively to indicate opinions and preferences. Slides 5 - 8

​Look at these sentences from Nicholas’ conversation when he and his friends go shopping for furnishings and appliances for their apartment: 
Le vendeur nous vend un tapis.
Je te paie le loyer.

In these examples, nousand teare indirect object pronouns. An indirect object pronoun is used in place of the indirect object, the person to whom, or for whom, the action is being done. You've seen how we use indirect object pronouns with verbs like plaire,as in this example, in which the indirect object pronoun is me:
Cette maison me plait beaucoup.

Now look at this sentence with the verb payer: 
Je paie le loyer à toi.

We can rewrite the same sentence with a different construction, replacing toi by the indirect object pronoun te:
Je te paie le loyer.

​Part A Le vendeur montre le canapé aux clients.

Part B Elle a acheté une table à sa fille.

Part C Robert a donné les clés à toi.

Part D Tu n’as pas offert un cadeau à tes parents.

​In this lesson, you will describe online browsing and shopping experiences.

​Fill in the blanks:

Nicholas et ses amis __________ (acheter) quelques choses en ligne. Pour cela, ils cherchent sur l’internet. Ils __________ (préférer) acheter des produits en solde parce qu’ils sont moins chers.
