Could you explain why the English "Yes, I agree with you." would be translated to the French "Oui, j'accorde avec toi."? I would have thought it would be "Oui, je suis d’accord avec toi" and even Google Translate renders it that way. Not that I am saying Google Translate is authoritative, but I don't really recall "j'accorde" even being in that lesson. But I will go back and look for it again. Thanks.

(Added a couple of minutes later: I did another quiz and this time it agreed with my "Oui, je suis d’accord avec toi".)

"Nous nous souvenont de notre dernier concert" Wrong?

I had to complete the sentence "Nous ___ notre dernier concert" (We remember our last concert).

I filled in "nous souvenont de". It was however marked as incorrect, and the correct answer was "nous rappelons de".

I thought you could use both and my answer was regarded "better" (according to the lesson: "Se souvenir de is the slightly more sophisticated option to say you remember.")

canadien / CanadienI think you have made an error in this example. Je connais un Canadien qui vit de l'autre côté de la rue.I know a Canadian who lives across the street.
You say all along that nationalities as an adjective are spelt all lowercase and not capitalized like in english. However here it is capitalized and even underlined!

...or am i missing something?
