Hi, I’m having difficulty with this. The lesson said that a correction had been made to allow both « qu’est-ce que c’est le Sacré Cœur (le Quai d’Orsay) and qu’est-ce que c’est que le Sacré Cœur (le Quai d’Orsay) to be considered correct. However, today my answer with « qu’est-ce que » was marked wrong

To answer "Tu veux venir à la piscine?", is there any difference from saying "Oui, je le veux" instead of "Oui, ce que je veux"?

In the sentence".....quand on fume....". "On" is translated as "people", I thought that "on" was singular.

About it - "y"?

She'd been dreaming about it forever.   

The correct answer was "Elle en rêvait depuis toujours."  Why wouldn't this be "Elle y rêvait depuis toujours?

Wouldn't the words "about it"require "y"and "of it" - en?

J'ai arrêté de parler... vs. Je me suis arrêté de parler...

J'ai remarqué cette phrase (J'ai arrêté de parler de peur qu'elle ne se mette en colère.) dans un des examens (C1).

On peut utiliser le verbe pronominal dans la même phrase? Je me suis arrêté de parler de peur qu'elle ne se mette en colère?  Cette phrase est aussi correcte?

Pourriez-vous m'expliquer la difference entre les deux verbes?

Merci
