Here it is 

‚c‘est M.Dupont qui était responsable…‘

Is this an expression that always uses the present tense followed by the imperfect? Could you use imperfect and imperfect in this example ……c‘était M. Dupont qui était…..

Thank you 

Why we have "Je donne de l'argent" and not "Je donne l'argent"

Is this brand name white out?

Is the phrasing « but here it doesn’t mean no / any’ » not confusing in the last portion of the lesson, since the entry in this latter part addresses un/une where they earlier indicate de etc being the indicator of no / any….  The « but » should be removed, no?

Would someone please explain to me why you would write "Je me brosse les dents deux fois par jour." in stead of "Je me brosse mes dents ..." I'm uncertain why you couldn't use mes even though you're also using the reflexive verb. Merci!

In english (maybe just NZ?) we use the expression "tell me about it" as a sort of ironic way of saying that you share not-so-good experiences with someone. eg. Speaker 1 - it was so hot last night, I couldn't sleep. Speaker 2 - tell me about it (meaning I had the same experience). Is Parle-m'en used the same way? 

Tous les jours, je fais des efforts pour aider la planète. Par example, quand je vais au supermarché, j'apporte mon sac en toile et j'évite les emballages de plastique. Et si j'achète un café à emporter, j'utilise ma tasse réutilisable. À la maison, je ne gaspille pas l'eau et he recycle mes déchets. Quand je ne peux pas faire de vélo, je prends les transports en commun ou je fais du covoiturage.
