The lesson states: "You will never use autres on its own," which in the context of the entire lesson appears to mean you would need des or d', since no other option is given for the plural, but you could in fact say, for instance, "ces autres journaux." Even if you want to make the argument that using ces fulfils the point quoted statement as to autres not being alone, it is still misleading at best.

So one can say: Il fait que tu aies de la patience and Il fait que tu sois patient - yes? Both are grammatically correct in English? You must have patience / You must be patient. One being a noun the other an adverb.

Pourquoi dit on ce n'est pas au lieu de dire elle n'est pas une voiture électrique ?

Merci 

why is:  You had your curtains changed, translated as "Tu as fait changer tes rideaux."

I understood that "had" uses the plus-que-parfait?

Halo friends,

I find French very interesting and wish to immerse myself deeply in the language. Any suggestions of the links I could use to get access to french tv shows,news and many others? Thank you.

English: I knew who was invited, but I didn't know the other details.

French: Je savais qui était invité, mais je ne connaissais pas les autres détails.

I got this wrong.  My thinking was that 'who' was a direct object and a person or persons, therefore connaître.   I would have used connaître in the second part, again détails is the direct object, but I was influenced by my error in the first use of 'to know '; hence I chose savoir.  Please explain why the first calls for savoir.   Thanks.

How do we put the accents?

should be  he/she/one has fun then we/people have fun

It would be she has fun or he has fun one has fun.. why is that not shown. Also seems so insane not to use of the verb to have avoir ??? alas just what is.
