Hello: 

Is "nous allions demeurer" a correct alternative to "nous allions séjourner?"  Thank you! 

This lesson gets confusing because of the incorrect English usage of whom. The lesson actually states 'Whom does someone meet?" That is incorrect. it is "who does someone meet?" or " you went to meet whom?"

Just google who vs whom. plenty of explanations there

I selected nationality with Capital letter, but it says I selected lower case

How do know when to use these before the season? 

I don't understand why the present tense - devient is used instead of the future tense.

where does the 'd' before 'y' come from

When I look up "failli" in Google translate, it has "bankrupt." Yet the words "failli sursauter" translate as "almost startled" (comme "presque sursauter).

So it kind of means "You failed to be startled"? (Failli faire, mais no?) Wow... that's a stretch.

Is the meaning of "presque" (almost) slightly different then? 

Although, the meaning of "bien avoir" can be surmised from the context, I still wanted to do some research. I was unable to find any information in Collins Dictionary, LaRousse or even Reverso.

I take it, "Tu m'as bien eu !" to mean something like, "You really fooled me!"

Does anyone have any insight into this particular phrase?

Merci a tous ! This was a fun little story.
