expressions with tout/tousTous les deux translates as "both" (all the two), and tous les nous as "all of us". Toute & toutes are the feminine forms of tout/tous, so if the nous are all females, should we say: toutes les nous? Cheryl

passed tenseA recurring difficulty with the writing challenges is choosing between passé composé and l'imparfait (I wish there were more hints in the answers) B1 "week 49" "St Patrick's day" opens with "Last weekend, we were in Chicago to celebrate St Patrick's Day." 'nous étions' is the suggested answer. Why not 'nous avons été' ?
