In the French written answer there should be a full stop instead of a comma in the line “Bien sûr Madame, On vous apporte ça tout de suite”. The corresponding line in English has a full stop.  Thanks. 

Hi, with reference to “la Belgique a la plus basse proportion de McDonald's par habitant.””

In French, is the apostrophe really used in this way? It looks like an English possessive apostrophe. 

I agree that this is a challenging lesson, and agree it’s a lot of information. Maybe a summary table (column 1 having each form of attendre, column 2 giving that form’s meaning/ translation, column 3 giving the sense, whether positive or negative) would help for quick review. I feel that by the time I get to the bottom of the list, I’ve forgotten the nuance of the definitions further up! A quick reference may help. Thanks for considering.

In the first sentence of the text - Did you know that the town council [US: city hall] has decided.... etc., the Hint advises ...- "has decided" = Use Le Plus-que-Parfait here.

In the related lesson, the examples show 'had' and not 'has' as being translated using the plus-que-parfait?

Could I also use 'prudent' instead of 'vigilant'?

Merci pour un texte du moment. 🥰

J'ai une question de vocabulaire.

Est-ce que « pour qu'elles vous SOUTIENNENT jusqu'à la prochaine fois » est acceptable comme une traduction ?

Si non, j'aimerais bien comprendre la raison.

Merci beaucoup.

Does ‘copine/copain’ suggest a less serious relationship than partenaire  and does ‘êtres chers’ work for loved ones? Thanks

For the sentence,  j'ai grandi en regardant les matches avec lui, how come it's not in the imparfait? He was growing up over a period of time, and watched several matches during this time, so it was a repeated action. I thought it should be imparfait. Please advise.
