    Bonjour et félicitations

    Ben, alors pour la A10, pourquoi on ne peut pas choisir 'well'?



    Réponse: Exercices /vérification de bernard02, postée le 10-04-2013 à 18:57:27 (S | E)
    Bonjour notrepere,

    d'autres élèves avaient mis WELL au lieu de GOOD, la professeur a simplement répondu que le choix de l'adjectif GOOD au lieu de l'adverbe WELL était lié au verbe LOOK.

    Quelques informations complémentaires auraient probablement été intéressantes.

    Cordialement.

    Hello,
    to look + adjectif signifie sembler , paraître:

    How does he look ?
    He looks happy, he looks tired.

    D'autre part, "he looks well" signifie il semble en bonne santé.
