Pourquoi dit-on    "c'est un charmant jeune homme" au lieu de "il est un charmant jeune homme" ?

Is me a direct object here. I cannot find a definition for 'se traverser'

Dear Céline,

I would be most grateful to know why "du" appears in "Vous vous rappeler du petit restaurant italien ..." and "de" in "Tu te rappelles ton professeur de maths."

Just to confuse things some more, there are several possible alternative English translations in addition to the one given here:

Je fais le lit après que tu t'es levé.I'm making the bed after you've got [US: gotten] up.
The French can also be translated as:I'll make the bed after you get up.I'll make the bed after you've gotten up.I'll make the bed after you're up.

Should this prompt be "tradition has it that he or she be crowned king or queen for the day!"? 

Why is "les distances de sécurité" plural here?

Sorry if I’m being thick, but could someone please explain what the following mean:  than"]">   as"]">   and    que"]">   at the head of each grammar explanation in the sidebar of the lesson?

"Bonjour! Je m'appelle Trefia. Je suis une fille. J'habite à Malang, en Indonésie. Je travaille ici aussi. J'aime lire les livres et j'aime écoute de la musique. Enchanté." How was it? Merci beaucoup.
