Is there any way of speeding up the audio to something more akin to proper speech?
The end of the passage states, "d'ici trois jours ouvrables" or "dans", but the English phrase to translate is "within" so should en not be used instead of dans? En being within and dans being similar to after ex number of days.
in this example, two questions:
Ce sont les meilleures vacances qu'elle ait passées!
1. why "ce" instead of "ces", if vacances is plural?
2. why pasées instead of passée, if the noun is singular and avoir doesn't match in number?
In example
Why venions? Subjunctive?

Why is 'Daphné apprend-elle le français' correct while 'Daphné apprend-t-elle le français' is marked wrong. All the examples in the lesson add 't' when the verb does'nt elide.
Hi, I think there are too many hints in many of these exercises (including this one). Specifically, the type of hint that tells you what word or words to use. These prevent you from making your own attempt. Personally, I’d remove these.
Why does “started to cry” use mettre? “ mis a pleurer. Can’t make sense of it
