small mistakes:
-"nous n'avons trouvé rien" -> nous n'avons rien trouvé

-"fatigue" -> fatigué

-"nos vêtements était mouillé" -> "nos vêtements étaient mouillés"

-"à ma maison" -> "à la maison"

-"bien que ce jour soit difficile" -> bien que ce jour ait été difficile

-"je n'arrive pas à oublier ce souvenir jamais" -> je n'arrive jamais à oublier ce souvenir

je pense qu'il faudrait mettre de l'imparfait à "nous marchions jusqu'au village"

Thank you, I got all the points that u mentioned except "bien que ce jour ait été difficile."

I was trying to say " even though the day was difficult, i will never be able to forget this souvenir."

Aren't your sentence is in passive voice ? Why do we need to use passive voice here can you explain please ?

[west raptor]

which sentence are you talking about?
and i think the best translation for this is "je ne pourrai jamais oublier ce souvenir" (this is the most natural one)

[latent owl]

Im talking about your correction sentence

You corrected my sentence by saying" bien que ce jour ait été difficile " and im wondering why you used passive voice

[west raptor]

"soit difficile" is already passive voice you know, I just changed the tense
it's not even passive; it's just "be + adjective"

[latent owl]

If i say, Le jour était difficile, this is not passive voice in my opinion

Neither the sentence

[west raptor]

no it is not

neither is my sentence

[latent owl]

Oh

[west raptor]

it's just the verb "être" conjugated with a compound form of subjunctive

[latent owl]

I see now

Thank you

This is subjunctive passé

Right

[west raptor]

this is the most natural way to me

[latent owl]

?

[halcyon stratus]

soit -> present subjunctive
ait été -> past subjunctive

[west raptor]

yes

[latent owl]

Oh i didnt know the conjugation of subjunctive so i thought this is kind of passive voice

Thank you so much

[west raptor]

np 👍

[latent owl]

Sorry for disturbing again but this sentence that you said kinda confused me

Did you make a mistake here by saying it is already in passive voice ?

[west raptor]

i precised afterwards that it is not passive

right after this sentence

[latent owl]

Oh Okay i was confused a little bit thank you again sir
