For the translation of "he revealed to me what happened in France", the correct answer was: Il m'a révélé ce qui s'était passait en France. I had the two mixed around, using p.c. on "what happened in France" and the imparfait for he revealed to me". Please explain the rational for the tenses. To me he revealed to me is continuing actiona and what happened in France is over and done with.

A bit of a tangent - I thought in a sentence like "J'ai rendu visite à mon ami dimanche dernier," you would say "LE dimanche dernier?"

Ne Ni Ni in the quiz question is grammatically incorrect.Neither is one of two things. Therefore the question in the quiz was grammatically incorrect.` I like neither the guitar, nor the violin, nor the piano` is not phrased correctly.

Translation question

In a test the sentence "Nous étions toujours ensemble à cette époque." was translated as

We were still together at that time. Does "toujours" mean "still?" Or should the translation be We were always together at that time. ?

Merci.
