The clue on the 2nd last screen is ' it = general statement ' but there is no 'it' in the sentence being translated, just 'I find that topic really interesting.'
The clue is misleading given the answers suggested, not unexpectedly, use ' ce sujet ' or ' ce thème ' .
On the following screen "I am going to buy it straight away. " In this case 'it' refers to a specific novel, so 'general statement' is not correct either.
I don't think the clue is helpful or necessary on either screen.
I see above that bleu canard ´ is translated as ´peacock blue’ Should this not be duck blué´Paon is peacock I thought. Am I wrong?
In the phrase, "Bonjour Lucile, nous assistons en direct à un début de course palpitant...", 'palpitant' seems to agree with 'début' instead of 'course'. I would think that the course is thrilling rather than its début. Is it because le début de course is a compound noun and, if so, the agreement would always be with the principle part, in this case début ?
Salut
This lesson is giving me more grey hairs! I get it wrong constantly!
On the test, you ask “How would you say "You remind him of Audrey Hepburn." ?
the correct answer is: Tu lui rappelles Audrey Hepburn.
My answer is marked as incorrect “Tu rappelles Audrey Hepburn à lui.”
But in the lesson you say:
Il rappelle son ex à Maria. He reminds Maria of her ex.
Elle rappelle sa sœur à Alain. She reminds Alain of his sister.
Thanks

how does this 'nous est arrivé' come together to mean "happening to us"?
I am uncertain why it is "de plus belle" and not "de plus beau".
It seems to refer back to le fou rire, which is masculine.
Maybe "plus belle" is a fixed term?
Are all verbs strictly reflexive verbs or can they sometimes not be reflexive
