Est-ce que je peux utilizer “cuire” comme “Je cuis une jolie dinde”? 

The stone question was not easy. How would one say "Stone collection" or " Pierre's Stone collection"?

Thank you, Di

Hello, for this question: 

Marie nous rejoindra ________ le restaurant. Marie will meet up with us when we've left the restaurant.

The correct answer is: quand nous aurons quitté 

I answered: quand nous serons quitté, as I would say nous sommes quitté le restaurant. 

 Many thanks!

  Quand j'utilise le mot qui et quand j'utilise le mot que ? 

"À l'avenir, je devrai t'écouter davantage."

In the future, I'll have to listen to you more.

Are there any rules around when to use davantage vs plus, or are they interchangeable? Could I have used:

"À l'avenir, je devrai t'écouter plus." ?

Thanks

In the sentence, "So, let's raise our glasses to the ones [whom] we love and to the future!", love was translated using aimer.  I chose adorer, which was not accepted.   I get this wrong all the time.  Generally, the problem is how to translate love versus like.  With regard to adore, is it that one adores something and not someone ?  Thanks in advance. 

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

Best, Laura 

How do I know which to use? C’est or Il est ?
