FYW 231: “qui” vs “que”, a brush-up
Listen now
Description
This is yet another question from Artur, who was featured in the previous episode! 😉 "I recently stumbled upon one hitch in one exercise in a course, namely: "Si quelque chose tente Robert, il l'achète" becomes "Il achète ce qui le tente." According to you, it should be: "Il achète ce que le tente"? I am confused here. Could you clarify this?" The difference between QUI and QUE is by far my most popular post and as such, is well worth a brush-up! See the links to my article, audio version and FREE printable worksheet with the answers below.
