In one quiz question it states :

Quand j'étais enfant, ________ au chœur du collège.

When I was a child, I used to belong to the high school choir.

(HINT: Use "appartenir" (to belong))

The correct English for collège is middle school. Lycée is high school. 

May have found a missing translation. I put "j'ai choisi de passer le reste de la nuit dans les buissons de Mme. Maron !" and was marked wrong, but "j'ai décidé de passer le reste de la nuit dans les buissons de Mme Maron !" and "j'ai choisi de finir la nuit dans les buissons de Mme Maron !" are accepted translations.

Hi, normally, there is a hint when a proper name is used, but not in this case for Cyril. Is that intentional? Are we supposed to be good enough by now to pick up proper names?  :)

Mettez au temps convenable

is avons étudié correct or étudiions is correct?

Which is more Correct and will I get mark for passe compose in a subjective exam.

Are both technically correct?

Somewhere in my past studies, I was told that using "bien" with "aimer" actually lessens its meaning from love to like.  Did I get that wrong, because in my recent lessons, it's used more as an intensifier.  Sorry if I missed this on the thread before.

Are both of these options correct? When do you use à + direct/indirect pronoun?

Is it correct to say le parapliue est sur la table

When looking around on the internet, it seems like "Retourner" is used here and there, both informal on message boards and formal on shopping sites (for example H&M website: "POUR RETOURNER UN ACHAT EN LIGNE"), for indicating returning an item.

Could you elaborate on this and why you write "Retourner never means to return (something) in the context of a shop for example." ?
