In the 2nd quiz on plus-que-parfait (La soiree de mes Reves), the 4th blank from the END requires us to conjugate faciliter in the plus-que-parfait tense.
According to me, it should be : ce qui nous avions facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite); however the solutions key is showing it to be nous avait facilite (with an accent on the last e of facilite).
Can you please explain why we are using the 3rd person singular form of conjugation of the auxiliary verb in imparfait (il /elle / on avait) rather than that with nous (avions) here ?

Hi all. Can someone advise me as to when one uses ça as 'it' rather than le, la, l' eg. je le déteste or je déteste ça? I have just done an exercise where the latter was used for 'I hate it', I would have used 'le'. I can understand it being used for I hate 'that' but here it was used for 'it'. Thanks in advance/ merci en avance, Kevin

Why is it "était DE" here? Why is the "DE" used ?
