Can someone explain why I answered this incorrectly?  I answered "nous sommes brossés" and it told me that the correct answer is "nous sommes brossé".  The rule quite clearly states that the past participle should be modified to agree in number and gender though.  We is inherently plural, so shouldn't an "s" be added to the end?  Or am I missing something here?

Salut! Je m'appelle Lulu. J'ai une question a propos mon quiz. 

I was asked to put a check mark next to the sentences that had the correct order of the adjective. I did not put a check mark on the following sentence: "un ogre grand comme une maison" because according to the lesson, the adjective "grand" is placed before the noun, but in this sentence the adjective "grand" is after the noun and it was marked as wrong. Could you please explain why I got it wrong? I am confused about this grammar rule. Merci beaucoup.

Less commonly, à + indirect object may be replaced with the adverbial pronoun y:

So which one is it? The examples say to use nos or notre with on. I did exactly that in the test and got it wrong. It would be useful to know when to use one and when the other one with on.

Why une brosse a dents and not aux because dents is plural?

une pomme à cuire = a cooking apple jumps out to me as an odd one out. You wash with a washing machine, iron with an iron and sew with a sewing machine but the apple is the one being cooked here. Is this a peculiarity of edible things or does the French just work differently to English?

The quick Lesson on this sites that in the negative imperative the subject pronoun (tu, vous, nous) is dropped.

In Schaum's Outlines text, I see the following negative imperatives: Ne te reveille pas,  Ne nous reveillons pas, and Ne vous reveille pas.

One of the exercise questions in chapter 5 of same text  asks for the negative imperative of "Promenez-vous dans le parc" The answer is Ne vous promenez pas dans le parc.

Having trouble understanding this

I love this Alsatian news broadcast. So funny! The play on words are superb: Prime Minister Cresson and watercress; the S P meaning "ça prûle"; the Haut and Bas-Rhin with reins. So funny. Most of all, l had the acute feeling that l was in France, but maybe in Germany...maybe France? Great way to teach the discombobulation Alsatians have experienced over time  through being attached to this country and then that and then this one again. The presenter's suit and tie etc.,  say it all. 😀 Thank you! A fun end to my French learning today.
