    Any tips?

    Maybe if a list could be compiled of questions that can be asked!


    NOT THE OBVIOUS ONES such as What age are you? etc.





    - What would you do if you were prinicpal of your school?
    - Why is sport important to people?
    - Whats your opinion on recycling?
    etc etc

    I'd say it "Je voudrais aller au chypre pour deux semaines en aout" - I would like to go to Cyprus for 2 weeks. Personally I think it sounds better than saying I hope.

    BTW you only change the first verb in a sentence from the infintive.;)

    Well, if he wanted to keep the éspere then it would be 'j'espere que j'aille au chypre pour deux semaines en aout.' It would be perfectly fine to say that he hopes, especially in the current financial climate, you know. :P

    The only tricky question i got was do you think 18 is the right age to serve alcohol to young people, other than that it was standard stuff, past present, future, subjunctive, imperfect
