How do I search for a sentence structure? or set of words?I used the search facility to look for a) Il y-a and b) emotions ie. frustration However, it didn't take me to a notes page or a section on the brain map. Is there another way?

Incorrect examplesWould be helpful to not include the incorrect forms in the examples in the lower part of the page: "C'est qui que tu as rencontré?" Otherwise, feels like it's reinforcing incorrect options.

bad questionElle pardonne à Paul et elle .....(forgives us) I thought about this question and as far as I know either elle pardonne à nous or elle nous pardonne would be correct. I chose elle pardonne à nous thinking it was parallel structure, but it was marked incorrect. Tell me how I should have known the correct response.
