A la fois
It's time to learn what the French expression à la fois means - click to read my lesson.

Perfect Participle
The French perfect participle is used to describe a condition existing in the past or an action that took place right before another action. It means the same thing as après + l'infinitif passé, with one difference: the perfect participle can have a different subject than the main clause. Having studied this lesson, you'll have no trouble with the French perfect participle.

Passer à l'heure d'hiver
It's that time of year again when you need the French expression passer à l'heure d'hiver. Learn all about it here.
