I was surprised to see on one of my tests that "à ma famille" could be replaced by "y," since I thought you could not use "y" as a pronoun for people. Could you use "y" in place of "à mes amis" as well, for example -- as in "Je pense à mes amis." --> "J'y pense"? Can you please clarify this rule? Thanks!

I  don't understand why "chacune annee" can't be used. Isn't "annee" feminine, which  means the modifying adjective should also  be feminine? A little confused.

Hi! I don't quite understand the usage of à in the examples: Il le vend 3 € la livre; and Le pâté se vend à 1,25 € les 100 grammes. The verb is same, constraction is same. What's the difference? Can i use both? Thanks!

mais comme je prends froid facilement, 

mais comme je prends facilement froid.

Both are correct.

Are these sentences correct?

Je suis de France/ Je suis de la France/ Je suis du Japon

Can  'être de' be followed by state/city/region/direction (le Nord, L'Est)? 

It was marked incorrect, but doesn’t it fit the sentence better? It said that it should have been “Pendant qu’il va se préparer avec toi....”. 

Thanks!
