I'm a little confused at the distinction between "beacoup de" and "de nombreux". I used "beacoup de" in an answer and got it wrong, but I believe it was grammatically correct. The answers in the Q&A help a little, but I think it would also help to have this mentioned in the lesson text.

rejoindre is an infinitive.  Shouldn't it be rejoignons or rejoindrons?

Hello all,

I'm just in communication with support at the moment and I'm starting to think I dreamt up something. A while ago does anyone remember there being a listening practice history whenever you entered a listening lesson that you have already done. You used to get the date you did it plus the score you gave yourself. Anyone remember?

Many thanks

Martin
PS. Else I think I'm going mad!

Maintenant, il faut que nous attendions Noël !

During the first sentence below, I find it super hard to pick up the 'eu' after déjà - is it actually there?!

- As-tu déjà eu l'occasion de séjourner à l'Hôtel du Palais à Biarritz ?

In the statement "mon fils a de grandes oreilles" , why is it not "DES grandes oreilles"? Ears is plural, and "de" is the article, and "grand" is following a feminine plural suit.... I've noticed this with other items, mostly body parts, like toes, fingers, eyes. They all use a plural article "les" but when describing them, it turns to "de"

If I said "he had cats" it would be "il a des chats", right? What am I not getting!?

Are these correct?

1. J'étais née le lundi 26 mars 1983.

2. J'étais née lundi. (I was born on Monday) ...talking about a specific context / specific thing that happened on that day, so no "le" used?

3. La réunion est le mercredi 14 avril à 8h.

4. La réunion est mercredi. (The meeting is on Wednesday) .....talking about a specific context / specific thing that will happen on that day, so no "le" used?

D’aussi loin qu’elle se souvienne: I get confused about the translation of ‘could’ in this context and had translated this as : ‘D’aussi loin qu’elle pouvait se souvenir’. Can you direct me to an explanation of when ‘could’ is not a tense of pouvoir but a subjunctive?
