so, I thought us french learners could post the things that trip us up(i.e. our weaknesses), and hopefully improve on them.

I'll begin:
1. quand on doit utiliser le subjontif
2. les verbes comme "plaire" :(
3. trouver des bonnes idees pour les essais.

what about you guys?

Les faux amis.

Like, "actuellement" doesn't mean 'actually' but rather, 'at the present time'. Similarly, "finalement" leans more towards 'inevitably' rather than 'finally'.
