I am confused. Sometimes Ayez is used sometimes Ayons is used.
For example "Ayez confiance mes amis" I was corrected from Ayons
But here is one example Ayons foi en notre force .
Is there a rule or we just have to know, like vocabulary
I'm learning to play the guitar.

Is there a reason why the quiz accepts "Puis nous avons organisé une fête" and "Nous avons ensuite organisé une soirée", but not "Nous avons ensuite organisé une fête"?
Salut!
The correct answer in this exercise was "Tous les gosses y vont, mais aucun ne prend le train."
Equally, could you just say "Tous les gosses y vont, mais personne ne prend le train." Does it have the same meaning and is it correct?
Also, I thought aucun(e) ne was reserved for things rather than people?

The correct response to :
popular French TV host Guy Lux
was given as:
populaire animateur télé Guy Lux
….was the ‘French’ adjective left off or not required?
Also the correct response to:
1,500 privileged French households
was given as:
1500 foyers français
….no translation for privileged was given
"Papaoutai" = "Papa où t'es"?
I think that the use of imparfait vs passe compose (sorry I don't know how to use accents on this keyboard) is a matter of opinion in several cases here. For example, I used "achetait des croissants." He did this regularly. The answer is "a achete des croissants." He did it once. Either could be correct. The same with "est devenu une nouvelle personne." Did this happen at once or did it happen continuously? Judging by some other comments, I am not the only one who thinks either tense could be used in some cases.
I love the use of the colors ! You might consider using them in all the examples as well. Finally, for even greater clarity - select a color for the subject of the verb (that which is doing the "bringing to mind"). Again, the colors are so powerful. Thank you for all the great lessons.
