I thought it was interesting that it can apparently be correct to blend passé composé and passé simple in the same sentence, according to this supposedly correct Kwiz answer: "Après s'être levé, William alla prendre son douche." Perhaps that is something that should be mentioned/clarified in the pertinent lesson?

Tu dois rester a la maison 

English sentence - one of Guadeloupe's most beautiful beaches with its postcard white sand and coconut trees.

Kwiziq answer - l'une des plus belles plages de Guadeloupe avec son sable blanc et ses cocotiers de carte postale.

Why is ‘de carte postale’ used with cocoiters (coconut trees) and not sable (sand)? The English sentence uses postcard white sand, not post card coconut trees

I answered "le votre". Would I say "le tienne" to a stranger, for example?

Not really related to the lesson at hand, but in the example, isn’t besoin supposed to be followed by de?

Les chaussures dont tu as besoin sont dans le placard 

Hi I don't understand why "Tous les enfants partent mais aucun ne prend le train"  is correct but 

:Tous les enfants partent mais aucun d’entre eux ne prend le train" is not.   

THE LESSON SAYS: We can also express none of them using aucun d'entre eux ne ... / aucune d'entre elles ne ..., I understand "aucun d’entre eux/elles" is used with people and les enfants are people. Thanks.

For example : Can « Ainsi le nom » mean « that’s why the name.»?

i want to know the difference between " interview, reportage, et entretien" thanks. Great page, very useful!

Ou "je ne vais pas persiter"
